Samael (CH) – Morbid Metal

2nd edition, black vinyl.

Into The Pentagram…

This marvellous box comprises all the material SAMAEL unleashed before the release of their first album Worship Him plus a so far unreleased live recording from 1992.
Despite these recordings showing SAMAEL in their rawest and most primal, unpolished shape, they are nevertheless essential documents of a band that would go on to leave an indelible mark on Black Metal forever. Listening to these early recordings, one cannot but notice that there’s a certain magic immortalised in these relics. Although it`s rather obvious SAMAEL were big time into their compatriots HELLHAMMER back in the day, even the very earliest songs are proof of a band having already found its own identity.

For the first time these pillars of darkness so influential for countless of maniacs worldwide are made available on black vinyl 7″EPs.

The following recordings of the Swiss masters are featured in this box:

EP1: Into the Infernal Storm of Evil (Demo recorded in March 1988)
EP2: Macabre Operetta (Rehearsal recorded in May 1988)
EP3: Medieval Prophecy (7” EP recorded in October 1988)
EP4: From The Dark To Black (Promo recorded in 1989)
EP5: Morbid Metal (Live in Rotterdam in 1992)

Next to the five EPs including sleeve, the box contains a massive 120 pages hardcover book including a new in-depth interview with Vorphalack as well as many other new interviews and liner notes and a lot of unseen pictures from the glorious old days and a patch.

All audio material restored and mastered for vinyl by Patrick W. Engel at Temple Of Disharmony.

Anyone who is into the first monumental albums of SAMAEL and/or interested in the history of Black Metal needs to make sure to get this one-of-a-kind box.

THE PAST IS ALIVE!
