Remaster on black 12" vinyl (33 rpm) in gatefold sleeve with brand new cover art and printed sturdy inner sleeve.
Including bonus tracks "Day of Wrath" and "Dirge". First pressing: 300 copies worldwide.
25 years after its recording, the cult debut album is finally available on vinyl for the very first time!
On their 1997 debut album ‘Cult of the Initiated’, PESSIMIST unleashed their brutality onto the international metal scene for the first time.
The nascent band's effort displayed all the traits - the violent riffing, guttural vocal attack, and relentless pacing - that would become their calling card for the coming decades. This long out-of-print shrine of brutal American death metal is available once again!
For fans of Pestilence, Vader and Morbid Angel.
Tracklist:
Side A: Cult of the Initiated/Let the Demons Rest/The Stench of Decay/Drunk with the Blood of the Saints/Dungeonlorde
Side B: Pyrosexual/Innocence Defiled/Unholy Union (Alter)/Day of Wrath/Dirge (Outro)
