Chad Davis (Vocals, All Instruments)
For the best part of two decades American doom band Hour Of 13 have made quite an impact under the careful watch of mainman Chad Davis.
Along the way and over the course of three albums and numerous EPs, HOUR OF 13 have built a formidable discography that's amassed a fanatic following awaiting each offering Davis and his rotating cast of cohorts creates.
This is the first new recordings in over eight years, Black Magick Rites was available digitally on November 1st, 2020 for only 24 hours. Just as uniquely, Black Magick Rites also marks the first album where Davis handles not only all instruments, but also all vocals.
From the off, this is a superb album, none of the usual clichés of twenty minute dirges and stereotypical "Occult" lyrics.
That this album was produced by one (very talented) man is astounding.
Amazing vocals, great guitar playing, solid drumming brilliantly mixed together, cannot fault this in anyway, shape or form.
Rating 9/10
For Fans Of: Electric Wizard, Witchfinder General, Witchfynde, Angelwitch, Cathedral
