BLACK CRUCIFIXION zapowiadają rocznicowy album

 

Today, Seance Records sets November 26th as the international release date for a special anniversary album from Black Crucifixion, Triginta, on CD and cassette tape formats.  

"When we started, the thought that we would still be relevant 30 years later seemed absurd," says founding vocalist/guitarist Forn. "But as the times we live in the western culture have reached new levels of absurdity, we seem to have our own small mission going stronger than ever. Satan is the Adversary, and there is more to oppose now than in 1991."

The 30th anniversary album Triginta features three new tracks and carefully chosen live versions of Black Crucifixion's material throughout the three decades of their career. And as was the case with Coronation of King Darkness (2013) and Lightless Violent Chaos (2017), the Finnish prog rock legend Rekku Rechardt again plays lead and rhythm guitars on Triginta.  

Thirty years on and Black Crucifixion’s flame still burns strong, and when we consider if they should be mentioned in the same caliber as legendary Finnish bands of the same era such as Beherit, Impaled Nazarene, or Archgoat, the answer is summed up by Juho Mikkonen’s liner notes in Triginta: "Black Crucifixion has developed into the caliber of a band that deserves to be mentioned next to no one." And rightly so, because Black Crucifixion's artistry is their own and unlike anyone else. The band is truly unique, with a creativity carefully honed yet unfettered by expectations, stereotypes, and conventionality, instead ignited with a fearless and boundless dark creative soul. Their lineage may be shared from the early days of black metal, but their path is their own and always will be.
