THANATOS VIOLENT DEATH RITUALS COMING IN 2020

THANATOS are celebrating their 35th Birthday with a new album, their 7th album ‘Violent Death Rituals’. ‘Violent Death Rituals’ is scheduled for a end of March release on Listenable Records in limited edition Digipack with bonus track and Vinyl, Digital. This album marks the debut of drummer Martin Ooms and bass player Mous Mirer (both ex-Melechesh and ex-Liar of Golgotha) who have joined guitarist Paul Baayens and founding member Stephan Gebédi (vocals/guitars).

Band leader Stephan Gebédi comments :
“When THANATOS emerged in the metal scene of the early 80’s, there was a huge “Us against the World” feeling. We were at war with the establishment, despised all forms of organised religion and guess what? We still feel the same after all those years !

The current metal scene has lost a lot of its rough edges. A lot of bands have adopted a polished, plastic sound and a somewhat happy, politically correct attitude. But there are still bands that choose to go against the grain, stir up some controversy and never let go of the “us against the world/fuck the mainstream” attitude.“

THANATOS ‘ ‘Violent Death Rituals’ was produced by the band themselves and mixed by Dan Swanö.
