Brzask Set to Unchain the Fury of the Sudeten Mountains
Polish black metal machine Brzask is proud to announce the signature with The Metallist PR for the worldwide promotion of their eponymous demo, released on May, 31st. Brzask, which marks the debut of the five-piece band from Jelenia Góra, is available on their Bandcamp page. Listen to the demo in its entirety below.
Forming in 2019, Brzask plays classic, traditional-style second wave Black Metal inspired by Rübezahl – the folkloric spirit local to the Sudetes, often portrayed as a giant living in the mountains and underground and appearing in several legends and traditional tales.
The demo, including an introduction and 3 songs in the vein of legends like Mayhem, Emperor, or Dissection, has already been listened from more than 14.000 people on YouTube and it is considered as one of the biggest revelations in the Black Metal scene so far this year.

Currently, Brzask is focused on crafting another piece of black art, as well as spreading their tales beneath the eternal sky...
