Bagpipes? Nah. This is Scotland going full-speed into the abyss. 🏴🔥🤘
Alright butt… forget everything you think you know about Scottish music for a minute. This ain’t folk tunes and cosy pubs — this is pure blackened speed metal chaos blasted at ridiculous velocity. 😤💨
Hellripper returns with Coronach, and it’s an absolute ripper (had to be said). Fast, filthy, and dripping with evil intent, this album feels like being chased through the Highlands by something very angry… and very loud. 😈🌩️
No filler. No brakes. Just unrelenting sonic violence.
🎧 THE SOUND – BLACK METAL MEETS SPEED FREAK MADNESS
This thing doesn’t walk… it sprints straight into hell. 🏃♂️🔥
- 🎸 Riffs: Razor-sharp tremolo madness with punky bite
- 🥁 Drums: Blastbeats for days — relentless and unforgiving
- 🎤 Vocals: Snarling, venomous, straight from the depths
- 🌑 Vibe: Blackened chaos with a speed metal backbone
It’s dirty. It’s fast. It’s gloriously unhinged.

⚔️ “The Nuckelavee”
Opens like a demon breaking through the door. Fast, chaotic, and instantly addictive.

Catchy in the most evil way possible. You’ll be shouting along before you even realise it.
🔥 “Coronach”
Title track brings a darker, more atmospheric edge — still fast, but with a haunting twist.
💣 “Bastard of Hades”
Absolute carnage. No survivors. Pit’s going nuclear for this one.
🎤 RIFF & VOCAL SPOTLIGHT – JAMES MCPHERSON UNLEASHED
Mastermind James McBain (aka Hellripper himself) is a one-man wrecking crew here. 💀🔥
From blistering riffs to snarling vocals, it’s all delivered with precision, chaos, and just the right amount of madness. You can tell this isn’t just noise — it’s crafted chaos.
