Deathroll is a Japanese black metal solo project founded by KAZU in Iwaki, Fukushima, in 2012.
History
Deathroll was founded in Fukushima Prefecture in 2012.
The project released its debut full-length album Hakai in 2015 through METAL JAPAN RECORDS.
Subsequent releases included A Sick Life (2019), Immorality (2022), Japanese Extreme Metal Art (2023), A Corrupted Angel (2024), and A Woman Collapsing on the Glacier (2026).
In December 2024, the song "Storm of Silence" was featured on the bonus CD distributed with Legacy Magazine issue #154.[1]
Reception
Deathroll has received coverage from both online and print music publications.
Reviewing Japanese Extreme Metal Art for AVO Magazine, Peter Dennis highlighted the album's combination of black metal aggression, atmosphere and neo-classical influences. He praised the songwriting and compositional structure, particularly the track "The Grey Life", describing the album as atmospheric and rewarding repeated listening.[2]
Japanese Extreme Metal Art was also reviewed in the Japanese heavy metal magazine WeROCK.[3]
Reviewing A Woman Collapsing on the Glacier, Rock Attitude described the album as a psychological descent rather than a conventional black metal release. The review praised its atmosphere, emotional depth and cinematic qualities.[4]
Rock Attitude also highlighted tracks such as "Emptiness", "Blizzard of Despair" and "Hymn of the Extinction", while praising the reinterpretation of Schumann's Piano Concerto in A minor, Op.54.[5]
