Profanatica have spit on all things holy since the early ’90s, back when they were playing the backroom of Chinese restaurants alongside Gorophobia, Immolation and Incantation.
This year, drummer Paul Ledney and his band of heretics released their sixth full-length offering of American black metal. “I think this might actually be death metal the way it was originally intended,” wrote Black Metal Terror about Crux Simplex. “Satantic/blasphemous to the core”.
It’s true; not even a good tongue-lashing from a lascivious priest could silence these devils. Today, Profanatica are ringing in the new year by announcing a US tour. Joining this vile procession are fellow disciples of the black cloth Nun Slaughter and Tombs.
There’s plenty more hate in store for 2024. Profanatica are joining their labelmates Necrofier to pound the masses at Milwaukee MetalFest on Friday, May 17.

More righteous indignation for Crux Simplex:
“Fans of sick, primitive black metal should take notice” – Metal Storm
“No rest for the wicked here”- New Noise (4/5 stars)
“…harsh, murky and ferocious…even three decades deep into their career, they aren’t losing any of the venom and aggression that’s made them a pillar of extreme metal” – Distorted Sound
“Profanatica’s new album is not only good, it slaps (the face of a priest) hard enough to stand proud between all of the bands other works over the years, and maybe even outshine them” – Metal Exposure
