Official press release:
Oakland-based blackened death thrashers Vorlust have officially joined the Tankcrimes family!
Vorlust is fueled by venom, pleasure, and rage. Marcelle Marais, AKA Cunnus, forged the band in 2018 out of a primal need for expression, confrontation, and release. The music digs into the violence, ecstasy, sexuality, and madness of being human, and every show is a ritual exorcism. The band includes members of Necrot, Dipygus, Bonestripper, Nite, and Vastum.
Comments Tankcrimes head Scotty Heath:
“I am beyond thrilled to welcome Vorlust to the Tankcrimes family! The enthralling and alluring Cunnus is the creative visionary behind what she has coined beast metal! Wild and feral with her pack of untamed blackened death metal thrashers off the streets of Oakland. Tankcrimes freaks will recognize Sonny Reinhardt on lead guitar. We’ve worked together for over a decade with Necrot and have been friends for 25 years. Electrifying to work on another project together!”
In celebration of the partnership, Vorlust has unleashed stand-alone single, “Pleasure Drive”. Cunnus proclaims:
“‘Pleasure Drive’ is a speeding ticket into soaking wet ecstasy. Embrace the filth and crank it up!”
Vorlust’s “Pleasure Drive” is also available as a crystal-clear lathe cut square 7” housed in a full color double sided sleeve limited to just 100 copies.

Vorlust is currently finalizing their upcoming full-length, Wet With Filth, scheduled for an early Spring release.
