BLACK CRUCIFIXION: Long-Awaited Full-Length Debut Finally Sees Light Of Day

July 5, 2006

Finnish extreme metallers BLACK CRUCIFIXION have launched an official web site to celebrate the release of their debut full-length album, "Faustian Dream", which reportedly took ten years to make.

"It took us ten years to complete album and for same amount of time we have been talking about a website," the band's vocalist Forn writes in a statement. "We are really pleased with the way they both finally turned out. We wanted it to be different from all other metal homepages and I think we managed pretty well.

"I think that the website reflects our music really well," Forn continues. "We are an underground band and therefore we don't need to give a shit about the conventions or expectations of the metal scene. We are doing this from our very hearts. The fact that these hearts seem to produce heavy, cold and aggressive music — and websites — is just a bonus, I guess."

BLACK CRUCIFIXION was one of the original bands in the early nineties Scandinavian metal underground scene. After releasing two mini-albums (1992's "The Fallen One of Flames" and 1993's "Promethean Gift"),BLACK CRUCIFIXION had grown tired of black metal. These Finnish pioneers of dark metal started to create music with more variance and began the recordings for their debut full-length album, "Faustian Dream", in 1996. The album took ten years to be finalized and is now out on SoulSeller Records (world excluding Americas) and Paragon Records (USA and South America).

It has been said that "Faustian Dream" combines the aggressiveness of SATYRICON with the melodic quality of KATATONIA. Vocalist Forn's unique output has "only been equalled" by CELTIC FROST's Tomas Gabriel Fischer, according to a press release.
