ULTRA SILVAM
The Sanctity Of Death

SHADOW RECORDS is proud to present ULTRA SILVAM's striking debut album, The Spearwound Salvation, on CD, LP, and cassette tape formats. 
The Spearwound Salvation blisters forth with an incredibly ripped-raw style of black metal that possesses a poignant, magical sort of melodicism. At once familiar and foreign, ULTRA SILVAM attack with urgency and emotion but always with an palpably human touch that spits in the face of so much sterile "extreme metal." Every ringing chord, every bashed drum, every slaughtered tongue: each and every note and movement across the album bleeds an authenticity that's refreshing to behold. And yet, that would all be for naught if the band didn't possess commensurate songwriting chops - and indeed they do here, all seven songs making swift, enviously compact work within The Spearwound Salvation's 28 minutes. Many of these riffs will possess you for days, if not weeks or months or...

It was but March 2019 when Sweden’s ULTRA SILVAM displayed the full furl of their powers with the debut full-length The Spearwound Salvation. In a mere deadly 28 minutes, the power-trio swiftly ‘n’ succinctly asserted their identity, proudly upholding their home country’s history of melodic black metal during the glorious ‘90s but driving toward something uniquely their own – and VIOLENTLY so. In fact, ULTRA SILVAM’s execution alone was palpitating: every ringing chord, every bashed drum, and every slaughtered tongue bled an authenticity that was refreshing to behold. The fact that they lock-welded such unsafe (and unsterile) execution to dazzling ‘n’ dynamic songwriting made The Spearwound Salvation all the more impressive.
