Frontman Dani Filth states: "Greetings fellow Filthlings...⁣ After the glorious success of our livestream extravaganza back in May last year, we have decided to undertake a second in which we will play our legendary musical excretion 'Dusk... and Her Embrace' in its dark cinematic entirety, accompanied by a further bout of new album tracks and fan-favorites.⁣

Being unleashed on March 20th, 2022 - the day of the Spring Equinox - and known as 'The Infernal Vernal Equinox', this full live-stream ritual will also premiere the incredible third single video from 'Existence Is Futile' plus will include the entirety of our first livestream free for your vulgar delectation.⁣

So, Children of the Night, be expectant of horrific spectacle, big production, and razor-sharp Black Metal mayhem ascending your way.⁣ Warning. This one-off special performance is intended solely for those tortured souls still clinging to the last of winter’s grip.⁣ Happy f**king Spring!!!⁣"⁣
