Serpentrance "The Besieged Sanctum" CD

BLOOD HARVEST RECORDS is proud to present SERPENTRANCE's debut mini-album, The Besieged Sanctum, on CD & vinyl LP format. Originally released as a limited-edition cassette in early 2015, The Besieged Sanctum introduced this Russian cult to the international underground with a lurking menace. Comprised of members hailing from such elite hordes as Pseudogod, Ill Omened, and Sickrites, SERPENTRANCE create a swirling, sulfurous maelstrom of ritualistic black/death trance. Both seemingly improvised and militantly martial, The Besieged Sanctum heaves its hulking mass in a deceptively doomed manner: always a sense of vertigo engulfs the listener, no matter the tempo - from sub-atomic crawl to blastbeaten bestiality - and textures bleed in and out like a lingering fog. Now amended with an exclusive bonus track, the 31 minutes comprising the 12" vinyl version creates a gestating womb of eldritch dread and incantory solemnity.
