NOCTURNAL GRAVES were originally formed in Australia in 2004. Two well received demos, ‘Profanation of Innocence’ and ‘Deathstorm ,’ followed in the same year. Quickly securing a deal, the band officially released the ‘Necromancer’ 7″ vinyl in 2006 before unleashing their cult debut full-length, Satan's Cross the next year. The iconic album was later re-issued with stunning cover art by renowned painter Paolo Girardi (INQUISITION, MANILLA ROAD) in 2017. When the Australians first hit Europe in 2009, they celebrated the event with ‘The Gravespirit Sessions’ split. Former DESTRÖYER 666 and RAZOR OF OCCAM guitarist Shrapnel, as well as drummer L.W., joined in 2012. NOCTURNAL GRAVES widely extended their international fanbase with the release of sophomore album …from the Bloodline of Cain (2014), which resulted in an invitation to the 2016 edition of Maryland Deathfest and more shows in the United States. The band supported the tour with a limited 7″ EP ‘Sharpen the Knives / Lead us to the Endless Fire.’  Upon a line-up change in 2018, the band saw their third album, Titan released through Season of Mist. An Australian tour with WATAIN followed. At the onset of the world plunging headfirst into the pandemic, the band locked themselves away to write and record their fourth assault, ‘An Outlaw’s Stand.’ Upon reflection, this new offering encompasses the entire history of NOCTURNAL GRAVES, compiling eight tracks of sheer ferocity and raw, untamed black and death metal.
