Lyrically, the album delves deep into the unsettling realms of primitive magic, Slavic folklore, horror, and demonology.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Formed in 2022 by Horreur, Vulgael, and JRMR, with Pitoperversor joining shortly after, W\u00e9keras quickly established their presence. Following their independently released debut demo &#8220;<em><strong>Pochwa?a Cienia<\/strong><\/em>&#8221; in early 2023 (later re-released by Nigredo Records and Eastern Myth Records), the band has actively toured in Sweden, Germany, and France, including festival appearances and a mini-tour.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;<em><strong>Do wir\u00f3w, do krzyk\u00f3w!<\/strong><\/em>&#8221; features Horreur on guitar (also responsible for composition), Vulgael on bass, Pitoperversor on drums, and JRMR on vocals and lyrics. The album was recorded in 2024 in \u00c5rstaberg, Sweden, and mixed and mastered by Jimmy Lundberg. All artwork, logos, and layouts were created by JRMR.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>W\u00e9keras are<\/strong>:<br>JRMR: Vocals&nbsp;<br>Horreur: Guitar<br>Vulgael: Bass&nbsp;<br>Pitoperversor: Drums<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Sweden-based black metal entity&nbsp;W\u00e9keras&nbsp;have signed to&nbsp;Pagan Records&nbsp;for the release of their debut album \u201cDo wir\u00f3w, do krzyk\u00f3w!\u201d on 29 June 2025.&nbsp; As a first taste of the forthcoming album,&nbsp;W\u00e9keras&nbsp;have unleashed the track &#8220;Urok&#8220; \u201cUrok\u201d encapsulates the raw essence of what listeners can expect from &#8220;Do wir\u00f3w, do krzyk\u00f3w!&#8221;: a relentless descent into necromantic old-school black&hellip;&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/mkultramagazine.com\/?p=13253\" rel=\"bookmark\">Read More &raquo;<span class=\"screen-reader-text\">Eerie black metal act W\u00e9keras signs to Pagan Records; unveils \u201cUrok\u201d track<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":13254,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_coblocks_attr":"","_coblocks_dimensions":"","_coblocks_responsive_height":"","_coblocks_accordion_ie_support":"","neve_meta_sidebar":"","neve_meta_container":"","neve_meta_enable_content_width":"","neve_meta_content_width":0,"neve_meta_title_alignment":"","neve_meta_author_avatar":"","neve_post_elements_order":"","neve_meta_disable_header":"","neve_meta_disable_footer":"","neve_meta_disable_title":"","ngg_post_thumbnail":0,"_themeisle_gutenberg_block_has_review":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[7],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-13253","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-news"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/mkultramagazine.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/13253","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/mkultramagazine.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/mkultramagazine.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mkultramagazine.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mkultramagazine.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=13253"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/mkultramagazine.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/13253\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":13255,"href":"https:\/\/mkultramagazine.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/13253\/revisions\/13255"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mkultramagazine.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/media\/13254"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/mkultramagazine.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=13253"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mkultramagazine.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=13253"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mkultramagazine.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=13253"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
