LOCAL heavy metal band, Celestial Burn, is launching its first full-length album called ‘EX INFERNUS’ on March 16, 2024, at the Cheers and Beers Sports Bar, Alexander Street, Kitty.

Heavy metal fans may remember the band from its 2018 EP/ Demo release which showcased some of what they bring to the table in terms of music. EX INFERNUS is a Latin name, which translates to ‘far from below’.

The Buzz was able to interview Celestial Burn members who all had incredibly good things to say about the album. Celestial Burn consists of guitarist Imran Baksh, drummer Fernando Vieira and vocalist Oma Ragoo.
They explained that EX INFERNUS is an enhanced version of themselves, from where they began a few years ago, to where they are now as a local band.

According to Baksh, the songs on the album are songs they have been working on for quite some time.
“These are songs that we have put together for about two years now. We performed them. We perfected them to our liking, [for] people who we would have performed for [and] the reception was very well received.

So the album is where we are today as a band, as a unit. This is the fruit of our hard work, the label, the dedication.”
Baksh remarked that heavy metal music is not as big as other music genres locally. The support is small but vibrant and serves as a form of encouragement for the band.

The band said that EX INFERNUS has a total of seven songs. These are ‘Death is Lurking’, ‘Incarnate’, ‘Demons and Gods’, ‘Scryer’, ‘Lust of the Flesh’ and ‘They King and Jinn’.

Notably, fans of the band can pre-order exclusive EX INFERNUS t-shirts for $5,000 by contacting 592-627-7432 or 592-604-5548. There’s also an option to inbox the band on their Facebook or Instagram pages with their size and the quantity. Closing date for orders is today, and will be available for pick up on March 14, 2024.

Fans will be treated to live performances from Celestial Burn in their new air conditioned facility. Patrons will also be able to have a great time with friends and fellow heavy metal fans, and enjoy good food.

Tickets are limited and are available for $2,000 at Bad Monkey Merch’s Giftland and MovieTowne locations, Regent Multiplex Mall and the Amazonia Mall, East Bank Demerara. Tickets will cost $3,000 at the door.
