GRAVEHILL's 'Rites Of The Pentagram' To Be Reissued With New Packaging, Bonus EP

June 19, 2010

GRAVEHILL's "Rites of the Pentagram" album will be reissued on July 6 via Ibex Moon Records. The re-release comes with new packaging and includes the five-song "Metal of Death/Advocation of Murder & Suicide" EP.

Originally issued by Enucleation Records, "Rites of the Pentagram" is described in a press release as "how real death metal is done; no fruity keyboards, no emo or fake guttural vocals, no triggered drumming, no lame sub-par AT THE GATES wannabe riffs, no association with the word 'core' or a band name that is a sentence long and no cramming 5,000 riffs with political-themed lyrics."

GRAVEHILL, CARDIAC ARREST, HOD and FATALIST will team up for the "Campaign For Death Metal Purity 2010" tour. Kicking off July 2 in Portland, Oregon, the trek "was designed for the sole purpose of taking death metal back to its roots, a time when metal wasn't a fashion statement and death metal came from some place much more sinister and far more deadly!" according to a press release.

For a list of dates, go to this location.

GRAVEHILL will enter Trench Studios in Santa Ana later this year with engineer John Haddad to begin recording its sophomore album, "Pravus Tyrannis!", for a late 2010 release via Ibex Moon Records. Songtitles set to appear on the CD include "Unholy Executioner", "Suffer No Man to Live", "When All Roads Lead To Hell", "Devil Worshipper" and "War Prayers".

GRAVEHILL and CARDIAC ARREST are featured on the first installment of Relapse Records' "Death Metal EP Series", featuring one band per side. This exclusive release contains the GRAVEHILL song "Of Wolves And Wickedness", recorded during the "Metal Of Death / Advocation Of Murder & Suicide" EP session.
