Forged in the fires of the underground since 1988, SATHANAS return with their devastating 13th full-length, “Hand of Armageddon”! For nearly four decades, the Pennsylvania cult legends have relentlessly carved their own path through the darkest realms of Black, Thrash and Death Metal, building an enduring legacy of infernal riffs, merciless aggression and pure old-school Metal spirit. Following the acclaimed “Into the Nocturne,” SATHANAS unleash their next chapter of darkness with 10 new tracks of apocalyptic Blackened Thrashing Death Metal, plus the exclusive LP bonus track “Hail Lucifer.”
From the scorching “Black Flame Messiah” and sinister “Embracing Hades,” through the atmospheric “Prelude to Darkness” and crushing “Through Aeons of Death,” SATHANAS deliver another relentless barrage of razor-sharp riffs, pounding drums, venomous vocals and unmistakable underground darkness. “Hand of Armageddon” captures everything that has made SATHANAS a true force of the American extreme Metal underground while pushing their songwriting into another savage and memorable chapter.
With “Hand of Armageddon,” SATHANAS once again prove that nearly four decades in the underground have only made their Metal darker, fiercer and more lethal. This is uncompromising Black Thrash Death Metal forged in the old-school tradition - no trends, no compromise, just pure Satanic Metal devastation.
SATHANAS unleash the Hand of Armageddon - prepare for an apocalyptic assault of pure Black Thrashing Death Metal!!!
