Scottish speedmetal tornado Hellripper is set to release new album Warlocks Grim & Withered Hags on 17 February, via Peaceville Records.
The solo project of James McBain, this one looks sure to thrust Hellripper ever deeper down our throats with even more grandiose epic and melodic blackened twists promised.
We’ve got the video for the track ‘The Nuckelavee’ of which McBain comments: “I wanted ‘The Nuckelavee’ to be the first track released as it’s not only the album opener, but it is the song that I think best represents the overall sound and vibe of the record. It’s speed metal at its core but with a few twists.”
