At least one of the members of Saint Karloff is one of us!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-background has-vivid-red-background-color\">The term spellburn is something I found in the roleplaying game Dungeon Crawl Classics RPG, or DccRpg. It is an ability that wizards have, where they can sacrifice a physical part of their body to call upon the magic energy of the cosmos make their spell stronger.\u00a0<br><br>And the lyrics in Spellburn is about a wizard who goes too far with this ability, and drains the universe all it&#8217;s magical energy, making his spell so strong that it destroys the rest of the universe. Except he&#8217;s not really a wizard, he&#8217;s a suicidal alcoholic who has distroyed the positivity in his own little universe, and is now going to release the negative energy which will destroy his small universe, by suicide.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The music feels like early Black Sabbath with a decent amount of acid thrown in. With songs like &#8220;Spellburn&#8221;, &#8220;All Hail the Dark God&#8221;, and &#8220;Radioactive Tomb&#8221; (a personal favorite) this is some music to add to your library.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"text-align:center\">You can check out the video for &#8220;Spellburn&#8221; <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\"HERE (opens in a new tab)\" href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=5xoiTtE6ueU\" target=\"_blank\"><strong>HERE<\/strong><\/a><br>You can check out the rest of Saint Karloff&#8217;s music <a href=\"https:\/\/saintkarloff.bandcamp.com\/\"><strong>HERE<\/strong><\/a><br><br><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Recently, it came to our attention that there was a song on Spotify entitled &#8220;Spellburn&#8221; by the band Saint Karloff.
