spiritus-mortis-2016Doom metal -yhtye Spiritus Mortisin pitkään odotettu uusi ”The Year Is One” -albumi julkaistaan tänä perjantaina marraskuun 11. päivänä Svart Recordsin kautta. Levy on nyt kuunneltavissa Metal Hammerin kautta, ja voit kuunnella sen kokonaisuudessaan alta. Yhtye esiintyy lauantaina 12.11. Helsingin Nosturissa legendaarisen Pentagramin ja NWOBHM-veteraani Satanin kanssa. Muita lämppäreitä ovat ruotsalainen doom metal -yhtye The Order of Israfel sekä uraansa aloitteleva speed/heavy metal -yhtye Satan’s Fall.

”Finland’s most ancient purveyors of doom metal, Spiritus Mortis are back with a vengeance! And today, Metal Hammer UK streams the entirety of Spiritus Mortis’ highly anticipated new album, The Year is One – set for international release on November 11th via Svart Records – exclusively HERE.”

”Seven years have passed since Spiritus Mortis’ previous offering, The God Behind The God, also their first featuring ex-Reverend Bizarre vocalist Albert Witchfinder. Now on their fourth album, The Year Is One is a mirror to your childhood’s occult fantasies. It is what you thought you heard when listening to your favorite headbanging music – even though those bands actually sang about sex and drugs and driving fast cars, whereas Spiritus Mortis’ material really does deal with black magic and necrophilia. It is as heavy and evil as one can get without slipping away from the world of pure old-school heavy metal.”

”Prepared with the kind of passion and time-consuming concentration that is fitting of the doom metal genre, The Year Is One was several years in the making, and the dedication is palpably present in the music. The band’s roots in Dio-era Sabbath sounds are there, but the men play with a heavy-handed yet melodic vigor rather unusual in the genre. Albert Witchfinder’s voice carries a newfound joy of expression, and he delivers his bedtime stories about demon summoning and corpse violation as if possessed by evil genius.”

Svart Records will release this work of supreme darkness on November 11th on CD, digital, and double vinyl. At this point, the only confirmed live appearance will be this month in Helsinki, supporting Satan and Pentagram. In the meantime, streamt the entirety of The Year Is One exclusively HERE, courtesy of Metal Hammer, the UK’s premier metal/rock authority. Cover and tracklisting are as follows:
