Like a black wind rising from long-silenced peatlands, Ireland’s COSCRADH unearth their second album, Carving The Causeway To The Otherworld, conjuring ancient druidic science, war-rites, and celestial violence. Drawing on three-thousand-year-old oaken causeways, blood sacrifice, and astral omens, the album channels the druid as both astronomer and war-seer, invoking Mars, Goac, and the fury of a people who carved truth into land, sky, and grave.
Blistering guitars streak like meteors, drums thunder like hooves on dead earth, and savage vocals erupt as ritual war-cries cast into the heavens. A communion of ritual aggression and ancestral memory, Carving The Causeway To The Otherworld stands as a cosmic execution—binding war gods, stone idols, and star-born forces into a cold, merciless vision of the night sky as battlement.
Created in 2025 at Sun Studios and Studio One Temple Bar, Átha Cliath, the album was recorded and mixed by Shauny Cads (Last Light Recordings) and mastered by Dan Lowndes (Resonance Sound Studios). Artwork by Stefan Todorović (Khaos Diktator Design), layout by Chimère Noire Design, photography by Dylan Ownes, with ambient contributions from Michał “The Fall” Stępień.
20 Buck Spin’s first release of 2026, Carving The Causeway To The Otherworld arrives February 20th on LP, CD, MC, and digital formats. COSCRADH’s savage black/death mysticism will appeal to fans of Teitanblood, Angelcorpse, Absu, Immortal, Mayhem, Beherit, and Cultes Des Ghoules.
