Century Media has announced the release of Abreaction, the new studio album by Svart Crown, France’s trailblazing death/black metal export and true preservers of the black flame.

Today Svart Crown released the cover artwork for Abreaction. The artwork was done by Stefan Thanneur and perfectly captures the vibe of Abreaction with its Voodoo-like atmosphere and eldritch inscrutability.

Abreaction will be released as a limited deluxe Digipak that folds out to a cross (EU version), limited Digipak (US version), limited gatefold LP+CD with a 12-page LP-booklet and as digital download/stream. The album will be available on March 3rd in Europe, and March 17th in North America.

On January 13th 2017 the track, “Transsubstantiation”, will be launched as a static YouTube video and instant grat on Amazon and iTunes.

Abreaction tracklisting:

“Golden Sacrament”
“Carcosa”
