Description
HELLS HEADBANGERS is proud to present KRISIUN’s essential early collection Arise From Blackness on cassette tape format.
KRISIUN require no introduction. For nearly 35 years now, the power-trio have come to define Brazilian death metal, and are among the country’s most renown and influential bands – rivaling the likes of Sarcofago and early Sepultura, even. While KRISIUN’s first three albums – Black Force Domain, Apocalyptic Revelation, and Conquerors of Armageddon – are widely (and rightfully) regarded as the band’s most legendary recordings, their Curse of the Evil One debut demo (from 1990!) and successive Unmerciful Order mini-album from ’94 laid the foundation for a sound unmatched and unrivalled in extremity, intensity, and sheer evil. In fact, one could even argue that both recordings – and Unmerciful Order, specifically – even eclipse that perfect trifecta for the embodiment of ancient death metal EVIL. As such, both recordings (plus unreleased era-relevant bonus track) were collected on the aptly titled Arise From Blackness collection, originally released in 2012. Absolutely DEFINITIVE, from beginning to end: if you are a false, do not entry!
As longtime fans of the band – and having worked with KRISIUN prior on definitive vinyl reissues of said trifecta, which will soon be joined this summer by 2001’s utterly mindfucking Ageless Venomous as a spate of deluxe digibook and cassette reissues – HELLS HEADBANGERS at long last will release Arise From Blackness on cassette tape format. The label’s characteristically high standards for cassette releases will also be applied here. Long may KRISIUN reign!
