GRAVEHILL'S MIKE ABOMINATOR BLOGS FOR METALMANIACS.COM
Vocalist Mike Abominator of recent IBEX MOON RECORDS signees, GRAVEHILL is now a featured columnist for the newly revamped MetalManiacs.com. Known for his gore-filled lyrics and all around 'metal-as-fuck' presence, Mike now has an outlet to philosophize on the metal scene in general. As a regular contributor to the site, Mike's blog will feature updates on all things GRAVEHILL, thoughts on metal culture and new artist findings worth mentioning. The first installment of the appropriately titled, Welcome To Hell can be found here. Read it, love it, live it and stay tuned for more.
For those who may have forgotten, here's the latest on GRAVEHILL:
Death Metal is Eternal under the Ibex Moon! No phrase could be more appropriate for the likes of GRAVEHILL! Sharing a label home with bands like INCANTATION, GOREAPHOBIA, ASPHYX, ACHERON, FATALIST, HOD and DIVINE EVE is exactly where GRAVEHILL belongs! Due to our new partnership we have 3 new releases to discuss
The first order of business is the 12 Vinyl Release of RITES OF THE PENTAGRAM which will contain special packaging strictly for the die-hard collector! Look for this release on IBEX MOON RECORDS in February/March 2010!
The second order of business is the CD re-release of RITES OF THE PENTAGRAM which will include the 5 song METAL OF DEATH / ADVOCATION OF MURDER & SUICIDE EP, complete with new packaging and under the black mark of IBEX MOON RECORDS! This re-release will soon follow the vinyl version in the spring of 2010!
The last order of business
Summer of 2010 will see the release of GRAVEHILLs sophomore record PRAVUS TYRANNIS! Returning to Trench Studios (again) under the skilled engineering helm of John Haddad, we hope to commission Kris Verwimp for all artwork but sadly may have to settle on a secondary choice. Some titles set to appear on this release are Unholy Executioner, Suffer No Man to Live, When All Roads Lead to Hell, Devil Worshiper, and War Prayers to name a few.
In closing
early 2010 will also see the release of the Relapse Records Death Metal EP Series, this is a strictly 7 EP vinyl release featuring one band per side, the first of said series features GRAVEHILL and CARDIAC ARREST. This exclusive release has the song OF WOLVES AND WICKEDNESS recorded during the METAL OF DEATH / ADVOCATION OF MURDER & SUICIDE EP session. This series will eventually see a CD release; refer to www.relapse.com for more details.
