Délétère

Délétère is a Québec-based black metal act born from the frostbitten Canadian metal underground. Emerging in the late 2000s, this shadowy collective thrives on raw, atmospheric compositions that channel Québécois folklore and unrelenting misanthropic themes. Their music pairs dissonant riffs with haunting melodic undercurrents, often sung entirely in French to emphasize their regional identity. Notable releases like *De Horae Leprae* and *Theovorator: Bourse de la Veste* showcase their penchant for conceptual storytelling tied to medieval heresy and occult symbolism. Signed to Sepulchral Productions, Délétère remains a cryptic yet respected force in the black metal scene, prioritizing mystique and lyrical depth over mainstream exposure. Recent works like *Songes d'une Nuit Souillée* and *Opus Blasphematum* continue their tradition of blending searing aggression with eerily theatrical ambiance.
