Description
This CD contains seven bonus tracks in the form of the band's earliest two vinyl only EPs, Sanctum and Enslaved. Packaged in an oversized gatefold CD jacket. Along with their comrades in Oakland's Storm crow, 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 for 20 Buck Spin Records, on the Horizon, Sanctum continues to crush the cenotaph as they did on their previous split album with eight new tracks of Total-Death-Crust. Tracks like 'Scepter of Pestilence' and 'Victory Or Defeat' are as memorable as they are earth-scorching. 2008.
