Below the Black Wake

Below the Black Wake is the 2026 full-length Cursed to Conquer album: twelve tracks of pirate metal about a cursed fleet sailing past the last reliable map.

The record starts with starless water and ends underneath the black wake itself. In between, the voyage moves through drowned bells, knife-masts, whale-rib chapels, dead sailors, and a sea that keeps choosing new ways to be worshiped.

Story notes

The album connects directly to Veyr Blackwake, The Mourning Star, and The Drowned Crown. Those lore pages keep the world crawlable without making the music hub carry every detail at once.
