For over three decades Black Funeral has channeled currents of pure darkness, and this new invocation is one of their most powerful and sinister albums to date.
This sonic offering to the Jinn is raw, vampyric & occult Black Metal that is laced with dark ambient passages and ritual soundscapes.

Recorded over the cursed first half of 2024, "Flames of Samūm" is dedicated to the Mulūk al-Arḍīya, the Seven Earthly Jinn Kings, each attributed to both the seven days of the week and the planets.
The Mulūk al-Arḍīya possess authority and infernal power that is both malignant and beneficial. The essence of the Earthly Kings is reflective and perhaps emanated from the Unseen and Imaginal world that is both real and not real, existing as a liminal power so beholden to the invisible, scorching winds and fire of Samūm.

This album is an act of Siḥr (Black Magick) that honours and summons with each track, aligned with the King and the planetary association therein. This album is a musical offering to those of the fires of Samūm, the divinely infernal Jinn that may guide or devour the minds and souls of those who open the liminal gates of the subconscious. Within this album, specific elements of lyrical and musical representation, offers subtle acts of Siḥr to summon the vampyric Jinn such as the ‘Ifrit, Ummu Sibyan (one Arabic name of Lilith) who is Tabi’ah, flesh hungry Ghūls and others of the abyssic legions.

CD limited to 333 copies!
