Brazilian Doom conjurers Pesta return with their new single “Shadows of a Desire,” out now.
A suffocating hymn to longing, anxiety, and the restless pursuit of what forever slips away, the track transforms personal anguish into collective reflection — where desire becomes both confession and curse.
Watch the official music video for the single “Shadow Of A Desire” via the YouTube player below:
The full album, “The Craft of Pain,” arrives October 16 digitally, with deluxe vinyl editions in December via Glory or Death Records, including ultra-limited handcrafted versions by Wax Mage Records.

In October 2025, Pesta will release their long-awaited third album, “The Craft of Pain,” digitally.
The record will be followed by a deluxe vinyl release later in the year via American label Glory or Death Records, featuring ultra-limited handmade pressings by Wax Mage Records / Gotta Groove Records.
The album spans 10 crushing tracks, each exploring historical episodes and figures who left deep scars of pain, violence, and bloodshed across humanity.
Themes range from inquisitorial persecution to the greed, lust, and megalomania that have fueled human cruelty throughout the ages.
“The Craft of Pain” marks a step forward in every dimension, songwriting, production, and vision. It’s not only Pesta’s boldest artistic statement to date but also a reflection of the harsh realities of Brazil itself.
Social inequality and cultural tension seep through the record’s atmosphere, while subtle Brazilian percussive elements echo the band’s roots.
