Debut album of Sweden-based black metal entity Wékeras. Pro tape version. Limited to 50 x black cassette and 50 x red cassette.
"Do wirów, do krzyków!" is a testament to the band's continued evolution, drawing inspiration from the chilling intensity of the Norwegian black metal scene (Burzum, Emperor) and the primal aggression of first-wave influences like Bathory and Venom. Lyrically, the album delves deep into the unsettling realms of primitive magic, Slavic folklore, horror, and demonology.
Formed in 2022 by Horreur, Vulgael, and JRMR, with Pitoperversor joining shortly after, Wékeras quickly established their presence. Following their independently released debut demo "Pochwała Cienia" in early 2023 (later re-released by Nigredo Records and Eastern Myth Records), the band has actively toured in Sweden, Germany, and France, including festival appearances and a mini-tour.
"Do wirów, do krzyków!" features Horreur on guitar (also responsible for composition), Vulgael on bass, Pitoperversor on drums, and JRMR on vocals and lyrics. The album was recorded in 2024 in Årstaberg, Sweden, and mixed and mastered by Jimmy Lundberg. All artwork, logos, and layouts were created by JRMR.
