HOW TO ORDER?

Not often in this genre does a band come along that not only sticks together for well over 13 years,…but whose followers stick with them,… like a religious sect! And not only is it the band’s perseverance that keeps the fans coming back for more, but the fact that with each release this band continues to strengthen itself, pushing the limits harder and farther to defy all known musical boundaries for Death/Black metal and beyond. The band is IMMOLATION and with the release of their most anticipated album yet, “Unholy Cult”, they will undoubtedly cast their ominous shadow over the masses and keep them forever dark.

Unholy Cult is the perfect metaphor for IMMOLATION, as this is what they are indeed. Forming back in 1988 the band developed an immense following on the strength of their underground demos. This die hard fan base was only to flourish even more widespread once their debut album, ”Dawn of Possession” was released on Roadrunner Records in late ’91. As IMMOLATION continued throughout the years with such releases as “Here In After” (MetalBlade ’96) and “Failures For Gods” (MetalBlade ’99), they were developing not only their musical capabilities and signature style, but also becoming one of the most intense live acts in the industry. With a no holds bar approach to writing music that was not only powerful, but also extremely emotional, IMMOLATION found their niche with dark passages and unexpected turns, making their songs even more memorable and addictive.

In 2000 the release of “Close To A World Below” (MetalBlade) set a mile stone in the bands career. This was the beginning of a new era for IMMOLATION. A non-stop ride through the pits of hell, “Close To A World Below” showed an even broader musical front with more diversity. It’s mesmerizing layers, sharp lyrics, thunderous sound and sinfully structured songs were hailed by fans and critics alike as their most unique and definitive compositions to date. And with their now infamous live performances IMMOLATION showed the world that they we here to stay!

With years of touring now under their belt and a discography to be proud of, IMMOLATION are back once more! “Unholy Cult” is truly a masterpiece. Once again IMMOLATION has reinvented itself to create a darker, heavier and even more menacing atmosphere, with intensity and feeling like no other! From militant and twisted rhythmic marches, to all out monstrous assaults, this album will sink into your very foundation! The emotion and passion are strong in the lyrics and the vocal delivery, as they thunder massively through the heavens! The dueling guitars create pure misery like haunting winds through endless caverns, churning in and out of themselves, only to intensify, cutting at every edge of your soul, then heavier crushing down like a gigantic hammer! The lead work is a horrific melody. From soothing you into paranoia, to attacking you like lighting! And the drums are pure controlled chaos, with the energy of an atomic bomb, the precision of a marksman, and the human touch that holds it all together. IMMOLATION manages to create an unforgettable journey of dark orchestration as only they can.
