Heathen Deity - True English Black Metal - CD

HEATHEN DEITY: True English Black Metal CD

The long-awaited and much delayed debut full-length from England’s Heathen Deity is an utterly intense and unrelenting assault, soaked in aggression, emotion and anti-Christian vitriol.
Over an hour in length, it combines the melancholy darkness of the early Norwegian pioneers with the furious violence and icy melodies of mid-90s Sweden, while also retaining the clean guitar passages sand embittered atmospheres long-established in British black metal.

Utterly faithful to the core values of the movement without ever being derivative, the album manages the rare feat of offering traditional, quality black metal while still bringing an utterly fresh and unique passion and songwriting craft to the genre.

For fans of: Gorgoroth, Endstille, Hecate Enthroned, Marduk, Setherial, early Mayhem.

Artwork created by our longtime comrade, the talented David Thiérrée. Features members and ex-members of Thy Dying Light/Atra Mors, Bal-Sagoth/The Deathtrip, Hecate Enthroned and more. Includes 8 pages booklet with lyrics and photos.
