American one-man black metal project TSIRHIC steps into the underground metal realm with its debut mini-album "To Satan I Reply...". The release will be issued by Iron Bonehead Productions on August 21st in CD and 12" vinyl formats.

TSIRHC’s first recording embraces an atmosphere rooted not in the modern black metal landscape, but in the dark underground traditions that took shape during the mid-to-late 1990s. The project builds its sound around a cold, raw, and mystical aesthetic reminiscent of cult acts from that era, including Moonblood, Judas Iscariot, and Osculum Infame.

Throughout the five-track, approximately 25-minute "To Satan I Reply...", sharp guitar riffs, savage vocals, and a lo-fi recording approach take center stage. Rather than focusing on technical displays, TSIRHIC aims to create a dark state of mind and ritualistic intensity, preserving the primal energy of old-school black metal throughout the release.

The project’s vocal approach follows the same path; its icy, hate-filled delivery carries echoes of GORGOROTH’s early vocal style and the raw expression found among French black metal pioneers such as Mütiilation. With its debut offering, TSIRHIC does not simply imitate the sounds of the past but instead seeks to revive the spirit of that era.
