about

BLOOD HARVEST RECORDS is proud to present SERPENTRANCE's debut mini-album, The Besieged Sanctum, on CD & vinyl LP format. Originally released as a limited-edition cassette in early 2015, The Besieged Sanctum introduced this Russian cult to the international underground with a lurking menace. Comprised of members hailing from such elite hordes as Pseudogod, Ill Omened, and Sickrites, SERPENTRANCE create a swirling, sulfurous maelstrom of ritualistic black/death trance. Both seemingly improvised and militantly martial, The Besieged Sanctum heaves its hulking mass in a deceptively doomed manner: always a sense of vertigo engulfs the listener, no matter the tempo - from sub-atomic crawl to blastbeaten bestiality - and textures bleed in and out like a lingering fog. Now amended with an exclusive bonus track, the 31 minutes comprising the 12" vinyl version creates a gestating womb of eldritch dread and incantory solemnity. Enter The Besieged Sanctum with SERPENTRANCE...

It has taken me years of listening to begin to properly appreciate this album. It is the hardest listen out of any quality extreme metal I have heard, but I am confident now that this is the best extreme metal album I have ever heard. The vision and scope is unlike any other. Camelus Dromedarius

Really reminiscent of the most balefully exultant moments of 90's era Carcass. I especially love the old school dystopian science fantasy feel of "Spiritual Malevolence". Don't play silly buggers and mistakenly overlook this gem! Ben Harris
