KrvL to return with second album “Donkere Paden”

KrvL Band Members

Belgian black metal band KrvL (pronounced as Kravaal) are the latest signing from These Hands Melt, the new home for dark and atmospheric music. Under the agreement, the label will release the band’s second album “Donkere Paden” on 11 October 2024 in CD, Vinyl and Digital formats. 

Following on from their debut “Kravaal” (self-released, 2022), the second album “Donkere Paden” will bring even more darkness and despair which will be divided into seven chapters. 

The album will feature guest vocalists H. from the band Oerheks and Shazzulah from the revered Wolvennest

The band states: “We are honoured to be a part of the These Hands Melt family. Their dedication to atmospheric music and exploration aligns perfectly with our vision, and together we unleash a sonic tempest unlike any other. We’ve poured our souls into crafting an atmospheric black metal album that will transport you to realms of chilling beauty and crushing despair. Prepare yourselves, for KrvL‘s reign of darkness begins anew when Autumn falls…

KrvL comprises nameless souls that drift through the Kravaal Forest in Belgium in search of the light amongst the darkness they find themselves in. With lyrics in Dutch, the band contemplates topics such as nature, finding inner peace, nemesis, resurrection and an attempt to find light in the darkness.

Musically, the band is all about atmosphere. With a foundation of traditional 90s and modern black metal, the anonymous band also mixes post-metal, doom and sludge influences. 

KrvL was established at the height of the COVID-19 pandemic in 2020, creating a perfect mood for the writing and recording of their debut album “Kravaal”. Eventually, the album was self-released digitally in 2022 and then on vinyl in 2023. 2024 sees the band reach new heights with the signing to These Hands Melt and the release of their second album.
