ACHERON Calling It Quits

April 21, 2010

After 22 years of existence, black/death metal band ACHERON is calling it quits. The group has released five original full-length albums, three mini-CDs, one covers CD and a number of other underground releases.

ACHERON will end on a familiar note by doing one last run of "Rites Of The Black Mass" shows until January 1, 2011. After that ACHERON will be done for good.

ACHERON's lineup for the final shows will consist of Vincent Crowley (vocals, bass),Art Taylor (guitar),Eric Stewart (guitar) and Scott Pletcher (drums).

Promoters interested in booking ACHERON as part of the "The Last Rites (Farewell Shows) 2010" tour, contact the band on MySpace or at [email protected].

"I Am Heathen", the latest video from ACHERON, can be viewed below. The clip was filmed with Werner Videos Services and was directed by Aaron Werner. The video features the band lineup of Vincent Crowley, Kyle Severn, Max Otworth and Ash Thomas, and includes a special appearance by actress Madison Riley.

This video is featured on a free promotional DVD put out by the band. The disc is over 90 minutes long and also contains in-depth band video documentary on "Making Final Conflict" (rare footage!),video footage from the band's 2008 "December Damnation" mini-tour in Brazil and the complete "Satanic Supremacy" three-song demo. This DVD is being given out for free to people who are buying the new "The Final Conflict: Last Days Of God" CD from the band or Ibex Moon Records.

"The Final Conflict: Last Days of God", was released on April 30, 2009 via Displeased Records. The CD was once again recorded at Mars Recording Compound with Bill Korecky and was mastered at West West Side Music in New Windsor, New York. The follow-up to 2003's "Rebirth: Metamorphosing into Godhood" is a concept album based on the fall of the three major white light religions, Christianity, Islam and Judaism.
