Sanctum’s “On The Horizon” CD is available now through 20 Buck Spin directly. Won’t be in stores/distros for about another month yet. The band will also have them on their upcoming tour (check myspace.com/sanctum for dates).
Along with their comrades in Oakland’s Stormcrow, Seattle’s Sanctum are the new standard for crust obsessed metal, or War Crust as they call it. Raised on a diet of influences such as Bolt Thrower, Extreme Noise Terror, Entombed, Unleashed and Amebix, Sanctum mesh the best aspects of all those bands into a storming, unhinged cacophony of metallic upheaval. On their first full length, “On The Horizon”, Sanctum continues to crush the cenotaph as they did on last year’s split album with Stormcrow with 8 new tracks of totaldeathcrust. Tracks like “Scepter Of Pestilence” and “Victory Or Defeat” are as memorable as they are earth-scorching. In addition, this CD version of “On The Horizon” contains 7 bonus tracks in the form of the bands earliest two vinyl only EPs, “Sanctum” and “Enslaved”. Packaged in a sturdy Stoughton-printed oversized gatefold jacket (like the recent Portal CD on Profound Lore).
Going into production now are Humanfly’s II CD and The Endless Blockade’s Primitve CD and LP. The LP version of the Blockade album breaks down as follows:
1,000 Standard cover LPs, with insert + poster.
100 with alternative screenprinted 12x24 cover + insert + poster (only thru 20 Buck Spin)
100 Standard cover LPs, with insert + poster on CLEAR vinyl (only from the band)
We’ve added Hellshock’s Shadows Of The Afterworld CD and restocked Corrupted’s El Mundo Frio in the mailorder.
