Cult of Fire's Intimate Album Release Ritual in Old Town Prague


Cult of Fire has finally brought their latest album, "The One, Who is Made of Smoke", to the heart of Old Town Prague, Czech Republic. This intimate black metal event marked an unforgettable experience for fans who had been waiting for what seemed like an eternity for the band's return to the city.

I was fortunate enough to be one of the attendees at Cult of Fire's album release show, and I can confidently say that it was truly mesmerizing. The evening began with a relatively low-key setup in front of the Lucerna Music Bar, but as time went on, the atmosphere transformed into an epic night of music.

Upon arrival, the venue was not crowded outside, which may be due to the fact that I arrived about an hour before the scheduled start time. This gave me a unique opportunity to grab a copy of the latest album on vinyl from the merch table without any significant wait.

As I made my way to the front of the stage, a giant black cloth was draped across it, and I could see that there were numerous props and stage pieces behind it. The overall setup seemed incredibly detailed and elaborate, with various Hindu and Buddhist artifacts, lit candles, burning incense, and even bouquets of flowers. It was truly breathtaking to behold.

The four members of Cult of Fire took their places on stage, dressed in ornate costumes that added to the epic atmosphere. This was my third time seeing Cult of Fire live, and it's undeniable that each performance has been unique. The intimate nature of this show made it feel special in its own right.

Cult of Fire kicked off their set with tracks from "The One, Who is Made of Smoke" as well as songs from previous albums. Their stamina and dedication to performing were truly impressive, particularly the vocalist's, who wore an elaborate headpiece that seemed to be taking a toll on him.

The guitarist and drummer also pushed themselves to new heights, even when seated for extended periods of time. It was clear that the band had given their all to deliver this unforgettable show. The entire audience was completely enthralled, with not a single phone in sight throughout the performance.

As I reflected on the evening's events back home, it only reiterates why Cult of Fire is must-see for metalheads worldwide. While other bands may try to replicate this level of passion and dedication, none can quite match Cult of Fire's unique energy. If you have the chance to catch them live, don't hesitate your wallet will thank you later.
