Примечание: Heretical Sect exists as an entity to communicate the unique perspective of the American Southwest. But not in sound or sonic style, instead by focusing on the historical, personal, and cosmological narratives of the region and coupling those perspectives with death-doom and ferocious black metal. Haunting lead melodies guide the listener to a path of tortured guitar work and pummeling rhythm as each passage builds into an atmosphere of total anguish, underscored by vocals torn from other dimensions and channeling generations of suffering. Although the American Southwest is typically represented through the nostalgic and romantic lens of cowboy culture it is home to numerous atrocities. Religious persecution, disease, slavery, and other violent acts are burned into the memory of the landscape. Expansive Skies, deep canyons, and painted red rock have witnessed untold butchery and grief. This project a funerary monolith to the countless, unknown dead who resisted and died, crushed beneath the hooves of conquest, victims to genocide and massacres. This serves as a foundation for the sound of Heretical Sect, juxtaposed against the beauty of the high desert. “We meet the madness of collapse; adorned in the cloak of chaos, confusion, and death—the mantle of our collective past.” The specific concept behind Rapturous Flesh Consumed is centered around the perspective of Salvador de Guerra, a religious zealot and Catholic Padre infamous for mutilation and torture. The album explores Guerra’s insanity and postulates some fictional reasoning behind his actions, seeing him obsess over the relationships between Christianity and native traditional beliefs. Attempting to marry the two through his own blasphemous rituals
