Yoth Iria Gone With The Devil CD (Jewel Case, 2026, Metal Blade Records)

Enter the dark and mystical world of modern Hellenic black metal with Gone With The Devil, the ambitious third full-length album from Greek extreme metal visionaries Yoth Iria. Released through Metal Blade Records, this album represents a bold new chapter in the band’s evolution, expanding beyond traditional black metal boundaries into a grand, cinematic landscape of occult atmosphere, epic melody, and sinister heavy metal majesty.

Formed in Athens, Greece in 2019 by legendary Greek extreme metal veterans Jim Mutilator and The Magus, Yoth Iria carry the spirit of the original Hellenic black metal movement into a new era. With roots stretching back to foundational acts such as Rotting Christ, Necromantia, Varathron, and the earliest days of the Greek underground, the band combines ancient mysticism, dark romanticism, and esoteric themes with a refined modern production approach.

Following the acclaimed releases As The Flame Withers and Blazing Inferno, Yoth Iria entered the studio with a clear ambition to create a landmark statement for the band. Gone With The Devil achieves this by embracing a broader musical vision, blending the occult darkness of Hellenic black metal with theatrical arrangements, gothic atmosphere, classic heavy metal influences, and memorable melodic songwriting. The result is the band's most expansive and cinematic work to date, where every composition explores themes of rebirth, tradition, spiritual transformation, and the relentless pursuit of musical transcendence.

Featuring standout tracks such as "Dare To Rebel", "Woven Spells Of A Demon", "The Blind Eye Of Antichrist", "I, Totem", and "Give 'Em My Beautiful Hell", the album balances aggressive black metal intensity with haunting melodies, majestic choirs, and dramatic arrangements. It is a powerful continuation of the legacy established by the pioneers of Greek black metal while demonstrating Yoth Iria's determination to push the genre into new and compelling territories.

Presented in a traditional jewel case format, this official Metal Blade Records CD is an essential addition for collectors of Hellenic black metal, atmospheric extreme metal, and occult heavy music. The durable jewel case provides long-term protection for the disc and artwork, making it ideal for serious CD collectors and fans who appreciate physical media.

Recommended for fans of As The Flame Withers, Blazing Inferno, Under His Sway, as well as listeners of Rotting Christ, Necromantia, Varathron, Septicflesh, Dissection, Immortal, Astarte, Thou Art Lord, and other masters of atmospheric and occult extreme metal.
