Nowa EP-ka LUCIFERICON w lipcu

 

Today, Invictus Productions announces June 21st as the international release date for a special EP from Lucifericon, Sabatraxas, on 12" vinyl format.

For 15 years now, the Netherlands' Lucifericon have been crafting a noble Metal of Death that's both traditionally rooted and boundless in its inspiration. From early EPs The Occult Waters (2012) and Brimstone Altar (2016) to the breakout debut album Al-Khem-Me in 2018 and its masterful follow-up The Warlock of Da'ath in 2022, Lucifericon have never been ones to rush this craft; each recording is deliberate, imparting a particular sensation unique from the last but always somehow sounding like the same band. Inertia Metal this is not: deeply personal occultism given sonic form, free-flowing yet focused, has been their stock in trade for a decade and a half.

To celebrate this particular Left Hand Path, Lucifericon are now releasing a special anniversary EP titled Sabatraxas. Evenly split into two halves, the first three songs are leftover tracks from The Warlock of Da'ath sessions, which impart lurking dread and hulking surge, dusted with tastefully fleeting lead work - muscular, serpentine, sooty, and unmistakably Lucifericon without a whiff of the over-familiar or retreading past glories. The three tracks that follow are live readings of "Khidir's Urn," "Qliphotic Trance" (both from The Warlock of Da'ath), and "Sevenfold" from Al-Khem-Me. Passionately performed and powerfully rendered, Lucifericon prove they are as potent live as they are on record.

"Sabatraxas is about heralding the darkness, finding yourself in it and finally becoming it," the band expound. "It is walking the solitary and lonely road - exactly as we have been doing since Lucifericon's inception. It is about the lore and custom of this cunning arte."


WE ARE THE TRANSGRESSOR OF THE VOID
WE ARE THE BRIDGE ACROSS THE ABYSS
15 YEARS HERALDING OUR PRESENCE
OF OTHERNESS ENTIRE…MADE FLESH!!!
