Baptism sign with Season Of Mist
Season Of Mist are proud to announce the signing of Baptism. The Finnish elitist black metal underground veterans are aiming to release their first full-length on the label in 2016.
Regarding their signing, Baptism comment: "We are very excited to become a part of Season Of Mist, with such a great roster and people behind the label", writes Lord. "It is an honour as well as a great opportunity for us. We are planning to enter studio at the end of this year in order to record our first album for Season of Mist, which will hopefully be released in 2016. We will be coming back stronger than ever and we cannot wait to start a great fire to light the darkness with this record. Until the world may burn... A.M.S.G."
Black metal orthodoxy demands a raw and unbound fierceness in the musical expression that is counterbalanced by epic melodies buried underneath a shredding onslaught and majestic atmospheres as well as corpse paint, hoods and spikes in the visuals enhanced by Satanic mysticism on the lyrical side. All of this is delivered to the dark letter by Baptism, who also let their Finnish roots clearly show through their hellish sound.
Line-up:
Lord S.: vocals, guitar, songwriting
