PRESS RELEASE:
Metal Blade Records is pleased to welcome UK death metal outfit CELESTIAL SANCTUARY to their esteemed roster.
Forged in 2019, CELESTIAL SANCTUARY burst onto the scene with their brutal blend of death metal pulling influence from the likes of Carcass, Dying Fetus, and Cannibal Corpse and injecting their own fetid flavor into the genre.
CELESTIAL SANCTUARY released their sophomore album, Insatiable Thirst For Torment, on Church Road Records in August of 2023. Hailed by fans and critics alike, Distorted Sound awarded the band a 10/10 rating noting, “CELESTIAL SANCTUARY have absolutely nailed their second album release. For fans of death metal, there is a little element of everything neatly tied together and delivered with precision.” Blabbermouth wrote, “Here we have a band with everything going for them. Insatiable Thirst For Torment is old-school death metal, fully rejuvenated, right down to James Bousema’s magnificent cover art. Up there with the best that the genre has to offer in 2023, CELESTIAL SANCTUARY have birthed a monster.” Kerrang gushed, “Death metal is meant to be disgusting. Brit sickos Celestial Sanctuary understand this better than most.” Added Everything Is Noise, “Insatiable Thirst For Torment is an impressive gorepile of fuck, a rancid and bloodied foreskin tapestry, a fetid bloat of liquified unlife. It’s one of those DOOM levels with the fleshy, living walls that make you feel uneasy before bisecting demons with the Super Shotgun. What I’m trying to say is, it’s fun as hell… This band deserves all the love they get, and then some.”
Comments the band on their signing, “We are chuffed to bits and extremely proud to have signed with Metal Blade Records. All of us have grown up listening to CDs and records that brandish the mark of The Blade, so to be a part of that history and stand on a roster alongside the best artists in the world of metal is an honor that isn’t lost on us. We’re well into the writing process for our next album, and having the backing of Metal Blade is inspiring us to write our most brutal, unhinged, and best shit yet. See you fucks on the road!“
Having played and toured with such scene giants as Obituary, Cattle Decapitation, Gatecreeper, Frozen Soul, and Undeath, CELESTIAL SANCTUARY has proven that the UK has a new band that can go toe-to-toe with their Stateside counterparts. Stand by for more news on CELESTIAL SANCTUARY in the months to come.
