SCHAMMASCH - Contradiction Double Album Set For North American Release Next Week
July 15, 2014, 10 years ago
Forward-thinking Swiss black metallists, Schammasch, will release their second opus - the epic, 85-minute double album Contradiction - in North America on July 22nd via Prosthetic Records.
Contradiction focuses on the battle between light and dark and the bonds between those two elements. Recorded with none other than V. Santura (Triptykon, Celtic Frost) and featuring majestic cover art from Valnoir (featured above), the album is one of Europe's best-reviewed metal releases of the year.
Watch a video preview for Contradiction below before streaming the entire offering via Spotify here.
Pre-orders for Contradiction are still available via the Prosthetic Webshop, which offers the release on either 2X CD Digipak or limited-edition gatefold 2XLP (featuring black and white vinyl). The album is available now on iTunes, Amazon MP3 and Bandcamp.
German black metal veterans Dark Fortress will tour throughout Europe together with Secrets Of The Moon and Schammasch in October.
