lyrics
A celibacy cover-up
To remain pure within their guise
You gather at the chapel
Where your tears stream and eyes gone dry
From a figure so sly with arms wide open
A truth not told, a secret not spoken
Vicars bastards sin after sin
Piled up bodies in the shadow of the crucifix
Hallowed grounds, loose soil, salted earth around its walls
Sons and daughters in an unmarked grave
Lust for the man in black, and defiance of your faith
Faint cries below your feet, the dirt shifts as the children crawl
No one dare speak that they’ve fucked a man of God
They’ll call it immaculate conception and throw it in the yard
To remain pure within their guise
You gather at the chapel
Where your tears stream and eyes gone dry
From a figure so sly with arms wide open
A truth not told, a secret not spoken
Vicars bastards sin after sin
Piled up bodies in the shadow of the crucifix
Hallowed grounds, loose soil, salted earth around its walls
Sons and daughters in an unmarked grave
Lust for the man in black, and defiance of your faith
Faint cries below your feet, the dirt shifts as the children crawl
No one dare speak that they’ve fucked a man of God
They’ll call it immaculate conception and throw it in the yard

Coagulating Darkness
by Hellrippersupported by 44 fans who also own “Shadow Of The Crucifix”
Pretty much the best Black/Speed Metal I've listened to since I learned about Evil Invaders and Vulture. Everything you'd love to be reminded of about this musical era is there. The influences are what you'd expect too: Motörhead, Venom, Bathory, early Slayer, Celtic Frost; aggressive vocals, tortured guitar solos, pounding drums; everything is fast, clear and still a little grimy, but without reverb cranked up to the max. Amazing band, amazing album.

Black Arts & Alchemy EP

Wicked blackened/thrash. A great holdover while waiting for their new album on Peaceville to come out.

Let There Be Witchery
by MIDNIGHTsupported by 34 fans who also own “Shadow Of The Crucifix”
I'm probably the only one who still regrets that they never pursued the stlye of songs like "Crushed By Demons" or "Before My Time in Hell" again - but my regret is alleviated by the fact that they can still write skull-splitting riffs that elevate you above the daily grind.

The band's debut is full of whiskey-burned growls and maniacal high shrieks, not surprising for a group of Detroit metal vets.

Rebirth by Blasphemy
by MIDNIGHTsupported by 29 fans who also own “Shadow Of The Crucifix”
I discovered them last night at Danzig 35th show in Dallas, it was a great live experience and they are proof that originality in this music world is still possible, I'm a new fan, they are the next great thing.
