Description
THE 2004 ALBUM OF HIGH-CALIBRE EXTREMITY FROM THE FRENCH METAL MASTERS, MARKING TWENTY YEARS SINCE RELEASE - PRESENTED ON CD FOR THE FIRST TIME SINCE THE 2004 ORIGINAL AND VINYL FOR THE FIRST TIME - INCLUDING BOOKLET WITH FULL LYRICS.
Seth formed back in 1995 & is known as being among the primary acts in the French black metal scene, with their 1998 debut, 'Les Blessures de l'Ame' regarded as a landmark album & a cornerstone of French Black metal since its release on the then freshly-established label, Season of Mist, with Seth becoming firmly established as an internationally recognised act as a result.
Seth went on to release a further five studio offerings over the next twenty-five years, branching out into other spectrums of extreme metal along the way before returning to the more grimly-atmospheric sounds of yore, with the band also set to return in 2024 with their new studio album.
'Era Decay' was Seth's fourth studio opus, originally surfacing in 2004 & continued to establish a more brutal integration of riffing & compositional styles & ideas which was indicative of the times, whilst also still retaining some blackened metal elements among more progressively technical ingredients. With a cleaner, more cutting production, this resulted in one of the band's heaviest outputs, with some intricate riffs & melodies interweaving to create a powerfully dark & at times experimental opus.
This edition of 'Era Decay' presented on CD for the first time since its original 2004 release & includes booklet with full lyrics.
