Earlier this year, Texas's Portrayal of Guilt shared a devastating collision of black metal and hardcore in their album We Are Always Alone. They're back for more with Christfucker, a new album out November 5 on Run For Cover Records.
Today, you can hear the project's lead single "Possession," a track that throws a layer of steaming black pitch over the band's expansive, nearly operatic sound. “We think of it partially in the sense of scoring a horror movie,” guitarist/vocalist Matt King said of the new album. “We wanted to create an atmosphere of anxiety and fear.”
Listen to "Possession" below, followed by dates for Portrayal of Guilt's upcoming 2021 tour with bands like Code Orange, Chat Pile, and Sheer Mag (come to Canada, plz). This month, Portrayal of Guilt shared a new song called "Touched By An Angel" on a split 7" with Oklahoma City's Chat Pile.
