Sargeist returns with an all-new entry into the black metal genre. They take their sound and refine it into an unrelenting machine of darkness. They keep all of their bass-lines that they're known for and amplify them into some of the best hearing in a long time. The guitar riffs are second to none. You seriously get the idea that Shatraug, Hoath Torog and Horns spent a lot of time sifting through different sounds and styles to try and find the best possible sound for this release. The drums, although sometimes a little too repetitive, sound top notch most of the time. The band blends all these together to make some of the most melodic, dark and cold parts, to the most raw, brutal and intense parts. Re-issue properly with a complete updated layout released with leading band member Shatraug himself as supervisor.

PROFANATICA require no introduction. Cold 'n' alone American black metal before "USBM" became some dumb rallying term, pushing boundaries and "good taste" with vile blasphemy and even-more-vile music, and simply doing whatever the fuck they want, both in their original early '90s guise and their now-intensely-prolific period in the 21st millennium: there's only ever been one true PROFANATICA.
Picture LP served in a 1970/80's-style gatefold jacket (called Unipak) with the vinyl sliding from the inside of the gatefold panels! Limited edition to 300 copies.
