Cruelty announce debut album ‘There Is No God Where I Am’

CRUELTY have announced their debut album!

Titled There Is No God Where I Am, the upcoming album from the English metallic hardcore band is their debut full-length album and is scheduled to be released in April this year, via Church Road Records.

Formed in 2017 and with just a demo tape released, the band began to play shows across the UK. The band quickly became a regular at shows up and down the country due to the variety in their sound. An eponymous debut EP followed in 2018 and 2019 saw CRUELTY release a second EP, In the Grasp of The Machines. This release enabled the band to grow further, leading to numerous UK shows alongside peers like RENOUNCED, HIGHER POWER, and a UK tour in early 2020 with EMPLOYED TO SERVE and PALM READER right before the global COVID-19 pandemic shut the world down.

The album is inspired by and titled after a line in occultist and author Aleister Crowley’s 1909 published The Book of the Law within which the writer is visited by a ‘Holy Guardian Angel’ named Aiwass who dictates the central themes of the practise of Thelema.
