Valkyrja - The Invocation Of Demise

THE 2007 DEBUT STUDIO ALBUM OF PUNISHING SWEDISH BLACK METAL, WITH NEWLY REMASTERED AUDIO & UPDATED ARTWORK & LAYOUT. - Valkyrja, one of the prominent acts among the recent Swedish black metal scene, was originally founded in 2004, “with the common collective goal of channelling violence, deprivation and loathing through means of extraordinarily potent audio emissions”; a parallel and extension of their own philosophies - boundless and without limitation in their art. - As the band itself reaches its twentieth anniversary milestone (having released four studio albums to date), the highly revered debut, ‘The Invocation of Demise’, is unleashed once more. The album represents storming and sinister demonstration of the group’s early intent to create some of the most ferocious and savage black metal of the era, & helping to fly the flag for the newer breed of Swedish Black Metal masters (whilst guitarist/vocalist Simon Wizén can also currently be seen on bass duties for fellow countrymen & genre legends, Marduk). - ‘The Invocation of Demise’ was recorded at Necromorbus Studio (Watain, Mayhem), with Tore Stjerna at the helm handling production duties, and was originally released in 2007. - This edition of ‘The Invocation of Demise’ is presented on CD format, featuring newly remastered audio courtesy of Tore Stjerna, plus fully updated artwork.
