WAXGOAT331 Verminous Knight (Spa) - Malignant Descent - LP

Malignant Descent is a coronation of filth. Recorded in 2022 but previously only released on cassette, Verminous Knight emerges as the true spiritual successor to the raw, unforgiving essence of 1990s Spanish black metal—a scene that remains one of the most shamefully overlooked and underrated in all of Europe.

Rooted in that forgotten Iberian underground tradition, Verminous Knight channels the primitive majesty of early Spanish gods like Uruk-Hai, Argar, and Gothician. With razor-sharp, melancholic riffs that spiral like crumbling castle turrets, underpinned by dungeon-bred drums marching inexorably toward the battlefield, Malignant Descent is a masterclass in lo-fi medieval tyranny.

This one and to-date only full-length LP strips away all polish to reveal the rotting bone beneath, perfectly balancing ferocious, punk-fueled energy with haunting, ethereal synth passages—creating a soundscape that reeks of rust, dust, and spilled blood. Verminous Knight distills the ghostly deception and tyrannical filth of Spain‘s hidden 90s legacy into pure, uncompromised majesty. @betrayed.by.light
