Description
PORT SULPHUR BAND
Formed in the muds of the Lawson Delta bayou, PORT SULPHUR BAND walks the line between fiction and reality. Both a meta element of the video game Hunt: Showdown 1896 and an in-house band of game developers at Crytek, PORT SULPHUR BAND began as a vehicle to tell stories from the world of Hunt, a supernatural shooter set at the dawn of blues and jazz in 1890s Louisiana.
Since their first album released in 2019, PORT SULPHUR BAND has become a cult phenomenon, with over 88 million streams across three albums. Their first vinyl collection, "The Devil's Fee," hit #62 on the German charts—an industry first in Germany for video game soundtracks—and their second vinyl collection, “Shadows Calling,” hit #63.
The band has since expanded their repertoire with live performances and have captivated audiences from Paris to Las Vegas. With the release of a Rise Up Dead Man music video in 2024, the band continues to blur the lines between developer and fictional character.
SHADOWS WAKE
The band’s new album “Shadows Wake” is set to surpass them all with 20 new dark western tracks from the world of Hunt: Showdown 1896. Each song tells a story from that gritty western world where betrayal, brutality, bravado, and desperation shape the lives of those who dare face the spreading Corruption and fight the monsters it has created.
In “Web of the Empress,” you’ll hear the tale of a woman buried alive, only be to be revived by hundreds of corrupted spiders. In “Beneath the Apple Tree,” a man contemplates his own despair as he exchanges his innocent dreams for a gun and a grave. And in “Curtain Call,” deranged circus clowns invite the listener to follow them into the darkness of their own madness and corruption.
“Shadows Wake” is PORT SULPHUR BAND’s fourth album and third on vinyl.
