BLIGHT SERMON

Blight Sermon are not here to entertain—they are here to test faith, rot idols, and leave a mark.

Fronted by Lilith Vale, the band’s singular female voice, Blight Sermon fuse doom-laden riffs, industrial abrasion, and gothic sensuality into a sound that feels less like a performance and more like a ritual. Lilith’s contralto—intimate, commanding, and venomous—delivers lyrics that dismantle devotion, expose hypocrisy, and reclaim power from the ashes of belief.

Backed by a lineup that operates like a coven of acolytes rather than a traditional band, Blight Sermon’s music is slow, deliberate, and crushing. Ash Calder’s guitars grind and swell like collapsing cathedrals, Mara Hex’s bass drags the listener into subterranean depths, and Elias Wroth’s tribal, processional drumming turns every song into a march toward judgment.

Their debut EP, Ashes of the Altar, established the band’s signature atmosphere—songs steeped in incense, ruin, desire, and quiet fury. Each track unfolds with a sense of inevitability, blurring the line between the sacred and the profane.

Live, Blight Sermon are infamous. Shows begin with chants and smoke, Lilith entering barefoot, ash-streaked, addressing the crowd not as fans but as The Congregation. What follows is a sermon of sound—hypnotic, confrontational, and impossible to shake.

Branded sacrilegious by some and revelatory by others, Blight Sermon stand firmly in opposition to hollow faith and performative purity. Their message is not anti-belief—it is anti-lie.

Blight Sermon do not offer absolution.
They leave a stain.
