Short bio

One paragraph version.

Cursed to Conquer is an independent pirate metal project built around cursed crews, sea monsters, tavern-shout choruses, and cinematic story-album worldbuilding. The music is hook-forward, theatrical, and heavy enough to carry a growing universe of visualizers, comics, fiction, and merch.

Full bio

The larger voyage.

Cursed to Conquer turns undead pirate mythology into a loud, expandable music universe. Songs move through black-water battles, haunted crews, cursed treasure, leviathans, tavern chants, mutiny, and doomed voyages that never quite stay buried.

The project is built for listeners who want more than a single track drop: albums, official visualizers, social shorts, dark fiction, comics, and physical merch all point back to the same cursed sea. The latest release is Below the Black Wake, a twelve-track voyage with full YouTube visualizers and a wider story world anchored by the Blackwake Covenant novella and audiobook.
