Ceremonial Castings – 'Salem 1692' CD

Standard jewel case CD edition

 This new re-recording of 'Salem 1692' sounds exceptionally fresh, richly detailed, and fully conveys the mysticism so crucial to the band's aesthetic. It’s as immersive as ever, if not more so due to the richly kaleidoscopic sound – organic, analog, but not once sacrificing any of the other-worldliness which endeared CEREMONIAL CASTINGS to so many. And now, in 2020, as more ancient and classicist styles of black metal take hold with a new generation, “symphonic black metal” need no longer be a dirty word: this re-recording of Salem 1692 is poignant proof of the subgenre’s inherent power to transport the listener to forgotten realms and dimensions far, far away from modernity.
