A self-described ‘transcendental black metal’ group, New York City’s Liturgy has broken boundaries and unintentionally provoked the purity of the genre at every step of its prolific and wildly experimental lifespan.
Led by singer/guitarist Haela Ravenna Hunt-Hendrix since 2005, Liturgy’s evolution from solo project to band has seen the challenging spiritual upheaval of their music push into a dazzling array of progressive and experimental dimensions. Nowhere has their fearless approach to discarding convention been more apparent than on this year’s 93696 album – an intricate and indulgent splattering of complex riffs, chaotic percussive fury, glitched-out electronic peaks, and atypical orchestration, all intelligently perforated by Haela’s soul-piercing shrieks.
Following performances at this year’s prestigious Arctangent and Primavera Sound festivals, Liturgy will debut in Australia for the first time with three exclusive headline shows this November with support from Melbourne’s acclaimed metal-edged noise musician Uboa.
