PRESS RELEASE:
WASTE CULT’s debut full-length album, “Blame”, will be released on June 6th, 2025, via Aesthetic Death.
Emerging from Bologna’s underground scene, WASTE CULT was formed in late 2021 by musicians with roots in punk and thrash metal, yet a desire to explore a darker, doom-laden sound.
“Blame” is the culmination of this journey—a raw, introspective work that merges classic doom influences with modern post-metal atmospheres. Following their self-released 2022 EP, this album solidifies their identity, delivering immersive and emotionally charged soundscapes.
The album’s title-track is now streaming HERE.
Tracklist:
1 – Ad Astra
2 – Delirium Of Manners
3 – Blame
4 – Blended As One
5 – Kerberos
6 – Pictures
7 – The Warmest Shelter
8 - Maze
WASTE CULT started in Bologna - Italy in late 2021, with all members having experience with other punk/thrash metal projects, including Rake-Off, Hyle, Siege Stompers, Call The Cops…
The aim for WASTE CULT has been to create different sounds and atmospheres to those other projects - exploring a slower doomier approach to their sound. In mid 2022 they self-released an eponymous 4-track EP on tape, and on the back of that started playing shows across Italy.
The first full length - "Blame" - is the characterisation of all their different influences, with a more defined identity - taking inspiration from the doom classics to the more modern post-metal sounds. This reality took shape after years experimenting in the practice room, with “Blame” bearing witness to a more introspective and personal approach within both the music and lyrics.
Aesthetic Death has always been a fan of stoner doom sounds and, like many, was schooled on the likes of Kyuss, Monster Magnet and Black Sabbath. Yet, Aesthetic Death has rarely had opportunity to work on any release with bands from these lands of sound.
When first listening to WASTE CULT it instantly resonated. Albums can become a soundtrack to a period of our lives, as an immersive escape alongside all the positive or negative things happening.
