Sabbat - Satanasword CD

ANTI-GOTH 640

(Description by C. Conrad)

Nuclear War Now! is once again honored to release the next installment in its ongoing campaign to revive the essential catalog of Sabbat's recordings for the North American legions of the band's worshippers. As Sabbat's seventh studio album, "Satanasword" is steeped in the inimitable tradition of its predecessors, as it projects the same blacking heavy metal infused with Japanese melodies that the band had developed over the course of its tenure, beginning over fifteen years prior to the album's original release by Iron Pegasus Records in 2000. This NWN! reissue maintains its faithfulness to the band's storied history by featuring the alternate artwork of Elizaveat, one of its core founding members, whose visual art continued to define Sabbat's image long after his departure as a primary contributing musician. Presented first on CD format with an appropriate Japanese obi strip, to be followed in time by the definitive vinyl version, "Satanasword" serves as yet another testament to Sabbat's enduring significance as a trailblazer of its own blacking metal path.
