Portland-based extreme metallers BLOOD OF MARTYRS are offering a free download of their Even The Dead Long For Spring EP, available now at this location.

Recorded before the present lineup was formed, Even The Dead Long For Spring features Blood Of Martyrs mastermind Markus Launsburry on guitar and percussion madman Chris Wozniak (LAIR OF THE MINOTAUR) on drums.

Even The Dead Long For Spring tracklisting:

'Blood For The Moon'

'Praise Thee Duende, Boundless Sea'

'Beneath A Blue And Silent Sky'

'Immortality'

Blood Of Martyrs new lineup will be debuting live on January 13th, 2011 at Ash Street Saloon, PDX with CEMETERY LUST, ARANYA and EXCRUCIATOR.

As previously reported, Detroit journalist/musician Ryan Bartek has announce his return to extreme metal as the new guitarist of Blood Of Martyrs.

According to Bartek, the obsessive work of Markus Launsburry (ex-NACHTMYSTIUM/TUB RING), prior Blood Of Martyrs recordings have featured members of SWANS, YOB and LAIR OF THE MINOTAUR, as well as other notable genre musicians.

Continuing themes central to my body of work, Blood Of Martyrs is deeply founded in a leftist sense of tribalism and autonomy from the machine. Deviating from the empty slogans, fashionable shock tactics & cookie-cutter molds that have long held extreme metal hostage, Blood Of Martyrs triumphs the DIY aesthetic.

Remaining apolitical, yet promoting a sense of individual anarchism, Blood Of Martyrs is the tribal warcry of a nationalism inherently exclusive, yet vehemently anti-fascist. Pagan, yet entirely agnostic; mystic, yet humanistic - Blood Of Martyrs represents the ultimate uncomfortable question mark.

The latest recording Even The Dead Long For Spring will be unleashed January 1st, 2011 (1.1.11). West Coast gigs to follow.

The first single 'Praise Thee Duende' can be previewed below:
