180gr black wax and super DIY packaging presentation for this crushing record. Inserts printed with metallic inks on black thick matte card stock, and jackets screen printed by hand by the band members them selves with metallic inks on semi-gloss black jackets. The US version was printed with silver inks, while the EU version (only 20 copies available incl. sticker) were printed with golden inks.
VRTRA's debut release is a monumental hell-spawned beast that will crush the listener with the force of a cataclysm. Comprised of three colossal movements of oozing negativity for a total of over thirty minutes of completely abhorrent blackened death-doom chaos, VRTRA have crated an opera of abysmal imagination and of fathomless destructiveness, in which the primordial extreme metal fire of behemoths like Dead Congregation, Diocletian, and Deasphell Omega is blown out of control by the swelling and foreboding atmospheres of bands like Neurosis, Unearthly Trance, Altar of Plagues, and Blut Aus Nord. Recorded at Earthtone Studios in Sacramento, CA by Pat Hills, mixed at Earhammer Studios in Oakland, CA by Greg Wilkinson, and mastered at Audiosiege in Portland, OR by Brad Boatright. Artwork and layout by View From The Coffin.
