Nameless Grave Records & Sunshine Ward Productions Proudly Presents: A Glorious Call in the Terrible Darkness by Draghkar / Helcaraxë

Dive into the depths of death metal’s rich tapestry with A Glorious Call in the Terrible Darkness, the latest split release from Draghkar and Helcaraxë, available worldwide on April 26, 2024, via Nameless Grave Records and Sunshine Ward Productions.

This monumental split release not only marks a pivotal moment in the careers of both bands but also serves as a testament to their mastery and evolution within the genre. From the dark underbelly of Seattle to the fiery forges of Mount Doom, New Jersey, this collaboration bridges the geographical and musical divide to deliver an unparalleled death metal experience.

Draghkar emerges with “The Last Dreamer,” a track that showcases their qualitative growth and the seamless integration of old-school heavy metal with the raw essence of ancient death. This track represents a bold step forward, incorporating dual lead vocals for the first time and setting the stage for their next album. Draghkar’s contribution is a fitting farewell to guitarist Kelly Kuciemba and a spirited welcome to new members, promising a future as relentless and innovative as their past.

Helcaraxë counters with “Satan ad Infinitum,” a composition that melds harmonized melody with the brutality of early ’90s death metal. True to form, Helcaraxë continues to push boundaries, exploring new lyrical themes while honoring their roots in epic, melodic death metal. Drawing inspiration from luminaries such as Edge of Sanity and Morbid Angel, Helcaraxë’s track is a masterclass in balancing melody with mayhem.

A Glorious Call in the Terrible Darkness is not merely a split release but a confluence of creative peaks from two of the scene’s most compelling acts. Draghkar and Helcaraxë invite listeners to traverse the spectrum of death metal, from its melodic highs to its devastating lows.

Available on all major platforms and in physical format through Nameless Grave Records, this split is a must-have for aficionados of the genre and a perfect introduction for the uninitiated to the depths that death metal can reach.

Don’t miss this epic collaboration between two titans of the underground. Embrace the darkness and witness the glorious call of Draghkar and Helcaraxë.
