Of Truth And Sacrifice (Blu-Spec CD2)

Double vinyl LP pressing. 2020 release from the German extreme metal band. Instead of getting stuck in the ever grueling cycle of studio recordings, album release and playing live Heaven Shall Burn allowed themselves a well-deserved break. While taking the time off the band the individual members could recharge their batteries and gather new influences and ideas. Conceptually the album is split into two halves: "of truth" and "of sacrifice". When it comes to the music you can look forward to their trademark Heaven Shall Burn sound, but also to atmospheric strings that the band fleshed out with Sven Helbig and recorded with conductor Wilhelm Keitel in Minsk.
