PHANTASMA To Release 'Book Of Phantasma' On Halloween

October 5, 2010

Slovakian blackened death metallers PHANTASMA will unveil their fifth full-length album, "Book Of Phantasma", on Halloween via Apocrypha Records. Described as "44 minutes of punishing, blasphemous, hate-filled anthems in the vein of such hellish acts as BEHEMOTH and ZYKLON, with each track representing a dark, haunting chapter of the menacing 'Book Of Phantasma'," the CD demonstrates how PHANTASMA has progressed, both in technicality and songwriting ability, since its last, critically acclaimed release, the "Alternativa 666" EP.

John MacMurphy, who manages Apocrypha Records, commented: "Much like 'Alternativa 666', their first release with us, 'Book Of Phantasma' continues to impress with its the dark melodies over technical brutal riffs . These guys really perfected their own modern take on the blackened death metal genre."

"Book Of Phantasma" track listing:

01. Prophet
02. Riders
03. Warrior
04. Dragon
05. Menagerie
06. King
07. Ave Satanas 5
08. Madness
09. Execution
10. Revenge
11. Destroyed, Cause He Believed

PHANTASMA is made up of vocalist/guitarist Amriel, bassist Darzagh and drummer Rhyak.

"Book Of Phantasma" will be released on Halloween night (October 31) in the United States and a few days earlier, on October 25, in the U.K and Ireland. The rest of Europe and the world will follow soon thereafter.
