New York City doom metal band The Pale Hand has released their debut single, “Reign in Hell”, available on all digital platforms. Stream it on Bandcamp, Spotify, Apple Music, or YouTube. A music video for the track is slated for release on June 20, 2025.
The Pale Hand, a quintet with members from diverse global backgrounds, delivers a sound rooted in old-school heavy metal with a modern doom twist. “Reign in Hell” features fuzz-drenched riffs, a high-energy groove, and a breakdown described as heavy enough to “shake Grandma’s grave.”
The band—Kelsea Beck (vocals), Pamir Aysan (guitar), Diego Silva (guitar), Finnegan Hu (bass), and Brian Del Guercio (drums)—brings a theatrical flair to their live shows, blending influences from gospel and Middle Eastern music into their metal core. Known for sharing stages with acts like Castle Rat and Testament’s Alex Skolnick, their performances are described as spiritual experiences, with a “vampire pastor” leading a blood offering ritual. The Eel Pit praises them, noting, “The Pale Hand transcends the traditional doom metal genre with a scandalous sound, performance, and visuals.” Follow the band on Instagram, Facebook, YouTube, or via linktr.ee/thepalehand.music for updates.
