Blutsabbath is Belphegor at their most feral - a blistering descent into blackened death metal chaos that refuses to let up for a single breath.

Originally released in 1997, this sophomore full-length sharpened the Austrian band’s signature blend of savage riffing, blast-beat fury, and blasphemous atmosphere. Positioned between their raw beginnings and the more polished extremity of later records, Blutsabbath captures Belphegor in a transitional phase where sheer aggression still reigns supreme. It’s grim, relentless, and unapologetically steeped in occult imagery.

Tracks like Blutsabbath, Diaboli Virtus In Lumbar Est, and Aboth tear forward with serrated guitar work and pummeling rhythms, while Damnation - Höllensturz injects a darker, almost ritualistic pacing into the assault. Helmuth’s guttural vocals sound like they’re clawing their way out of the abyss, perfectly matched by the band’s unrefined, visceral production style. There’s no polish here - just pure, unfiltered extremity.

This Ultra Blue vinyl edition adds a striking visual edge to an already uncompromising release, making it as collectible as it is punishing. For fans of the genre’s rawer corners, Blutsabbath stands as a vital document of black-death intensity in its most savage form.
