Castle Rat * The Bestiary [New CD]

Regular price $16.99 Sale

Emerging from New York's vile, creature-infested underground, fantasy heavy metal purveyors Castle Rat have announced details of their impending sophomore album "The Bestiary", to be released on September 19th by King Volume Records (North America) and Blues Funeral Recordings (UK/Europe). Recorded by Randall Dunn (Sunn O))), Wolves in the Throne Room, Björk) and mixed by Jonathan Nuñez (Torche, Restless Spirit), the band's latest odyssey features 13 spellbinding tracks of epic carnage and mystical metal. Commenting on the album, The Rat Queen states: "'The Bestiary' is a conceptual book of beasts containing a collection of mystical creatures from a world forgotten. The last remaining souls of each have been gathered and preserved by 'The Wizard.' Cautionary tales of each beast and The Wizard himself are woven through the power of traditional heavy metal song and spell."
