Source-derived summary

Darkc3ll is an industrial rock/metal band from Brisbane, Australia. Their music portrays themes of horror, evil and death.

History

Darkc3ll was formed in November 2010 by Postmortem Matt and J. Dracman. They released their debut album REBOOT : REPEAT in February 2012 through RTD Records/Rocket Distribution.

In September 2013, Darkc3ll released its second album, Dark Verses via RTD Records/Rocket Distribution. Before its release, two singles were released separately from the forthcoming album; "Six Hundred & Six Six" and "Exorcist".

When Darkc3ll released their album cover, it was met with some opposition by a Melbourne promoter, who took exception to the theme and cancelled their show.

Darkc3ll toured Australia in October and November 2013 in support of their album, Dark Verses. The single, Exorcist, reached number 4 on the iTunes Metal charts on 5 July 2013. The official video for the album was released for their second single, Exorcist.

Editorial analysis

Why this record matters

The subject matters to the general reference register because the source frames it as australian musical group. Its deeper value depends on whether names, dates, institutions and citations support that framing.

Evidence profile

Vocabulary and entity names are the principal evidence signals here, because they determine the precision of every later search. The source revision retrieved here is dated May 10, 2026.

Critical limits

A concise general-reference account can conceal disagreements about scope, terminology or the weight assigned to individual sources. The lead is largely declarative, so disagreement and counter-evidence require a deliberate search beyond the opening account. Authority statements aid reconciliation but still require their own references, qualifiers and ranks to be checked.
