Self-titled debut album out on August 14th!
The debut album’s musical offering is a broad and diverse mix, ranging from straightforward heavy metal assaults to multi-part progressive and contemplative epics. It even includes one classical guitar track. The music’s stylistic influences are strongly rooted in 1970s and 1980s heavy metal and rock prog.
Occult Master’s music offers a fresh breath of air to the contemporary metal scene. This live-recorded album features audible feedback, guitar squeals, and other authentic grit that hasn’t been overproduced or autotuned away. The songs showcase a love for the genre, for rock, and for good songwriting. Occult Master is a fitting blend of live, refined, and raw, and will not disappoint fans of good music.
“Occult Master was founded in 2012 in Oulu, Finland, first starting as a heavy rock/doom band. After a line‑up change in 2020, the musical style turned faster, more rhythmic and more complex. Occult Master’s music is heavy, versatile and full of nuances, ranging from full‑throttle metal blasting to quiet, subtle and beautifully eerie musical landscapes. The band’s roots lie strongly in the classic heavy metal of the 1970s and 1980s. The songs are delivered in a hardy, straightforward and no‑nonsense style. In the dark‑toned music, the lyrics deal with different matters of life and the world in general, and at times even horror stories told with a devilish grin.
