'The Resurrection of Lilith' arises with a cinematic, chanting introduction, leading the listener into the demonic world of Defacing God. Building up tension to release into an uncompromising melodic, orchestral death metal assault on 'The Invocation Part I "Lilith"', the track emerges as the first of three songs introducing female forces of legend as a trinity to be reckoned with – the first being Lilith, Adam’s first wife, who refused to obey and now reigns as a symbol of feminine rage and independency, but also for the darkness found within oneself. Bookending the undeniably strong
'The Resurrection' are parts two and three – 'The Invocation Part II "Jezebel"' and 'The Invocation
Part III "Abyzou"' – which lead into 'Rise of the Trinity', celebrating their necessary bond and
sisterhood. The track begins quietly before ascending into a rock-tinged introduction, soon
transforming into an all-out extreme power track carried by Gjørtz's fierce growls, engulfing
symphonics and a captivating guitar solo, resulting in one of the album’s strongest anthems. The remainder of The Resurrection of Lilith proves to be an auditory onslaught of epic proportions, seeing Defacing God unleash their supreme power and full songwriting dynamics with varying yet
unrelentingly hard-hitting tracks like 'The End of Times', 'Echoes from Fulda', 'Death Followed Like a Plague' and 'Enslaved'. Penultimate track 'In the Land of Rain and Sorrow' blasts with a blackened, dense wall of sound before the album closes with encapsulating, symphonic 'Into the Mist of Memories' – featuring a neo-classically inspired guitar solo.

'The Resurrection of Lilith' is a multifaceted, grim and bludgeoning escape that spans the arc between raw death metal and symphonic grandiosity with ease, showcasing Defacing God's ambition to
bewitch metal fans around the world with their sonic universe of darkness.

The album will be released as CD digipak and red vinyl editions.
