Hellripper 'Coagulating Darkness' LP

Gold vinyl.

THE 2017 DEBUT STUDIO ALBUM OF PURE, HIGH-OCTANE, BLACKENED THRASH/SPEED METAL FROM THE UK TITAN. PRESENTED ON LIMITED GOLD COLOURED VINYL.

Inspired by the likes of old-school legends including Venom, Kreator, Sabbat [JPN] & Metallica, James McBain formed Hellripper in 2014 & with the release of the debut EP 'The Manifestation Of Evil' shortly after, the Scottish band was already making a very clear statement of hellish destruction with an electrifying brand of blackened thrash. Building on the momentum of the debut EP with a string of split releases, the debut album 'Coagulating Darkness' was released in 2017 to media acclaim, with the UK's Metal Hammer hailing Hellripper as "Scotland's King of the arcane mosh" & the band receiving attention throughout Europe & the US. This was followed by the EP - 'Black Arts & Alchemy', before an eventual deal was inked with Peaceville, resulting in 2020's trailblazing 'The Affair Of The Poisons', succeeded by the 2023 opus 'Warlocks Grim & Withered Hags', which propelled the band even further to the forefront as a pinnacle of current metal greats.

For a debut album, 'Coagulating Darkness' demonstrated a startling maturity & clear sense of direction throughout its eight-track duration, with McBain single-handedly crafting & recording a set of blistering, timeless metal anthems in a relentless high-speed attack of ferocious riffing & masterful soloing.
