A campaign started on 1 July 1916. A campaign of muddy, rat infested trenches, endless artillery barrages, and cracks of rifles in the distance. A campaign of unsettling night raids, close quarters combat, and suffocating fumes of chlorine gas. The sound of the treads of the first tanks grinding the bones of those long dead on the battlefield to dust and of the screams from no man's land of men bleeding out in the night from the previous day's failed offensive.
This is the soundtrack for that campaign. Welcome to the Somme.

Shroud of Satan's 2013 debut EP is made available again on vinyl. More than 10 years ago this 4-track-ep has immediately put the band on the map as yet another powerful dark force from our local scene. No-nonsense Black Metal war that draws heavy inspiration from various extremists of the Finnish Underground. On this re-release the EP's 20 minutes of pure satanic black art are enriched by rare and unreleased bonus songs.
