A powerful live album and concert film documenting a pivotal moment for The Death Spell. This release captures their first explosive performance with a fierce new lineup. Recorded live in late 2025 in Tāmaki Makaurau (Auckland, New Zealand), this is the sound of The Death Spell pushing their '70s hard rock roots. Featuring new, previously unreleased tracks performed live for the first time. Captures the raw energy of a live show with zero frills.

The Death Spell is the band’s definitive statement of identity, a self-titled debut that captures the raw voltage of their sound before it was shaped by stages, crowds, and ritual performance. Where Second Dawning showcased the band in full live incantation, this studio record feels like the spell’s first spark: controlled, deliberate, and carved with a fierce clarity.

Across the album’s length, The Death Spell blends serrated guitar lines, weight-heavy rhythm work, and vocals that shift between invocation and outcry. The production is unvarnished but intentional, giving each track the atmosphere of a room charged with static, a space where every note feels like it’s pushing against the walls. Themes of transformation, shadow, and inner reckoning weave throughout, forming a narrative that moves from tension to eruption.

Far from a mere introduction, The Death Spell plays like a binding triangle: three points of power, each one feeding the others: a gathering of every element that would later define the band’s presence. It’s the sound of a group discovering its own gravity, pulling the listener inward with a mix of urgency and ritualistic focus. As a companion to Second Dawning, it offers the origin point, the place where the flame was first lit.
