NEWS: Necrodeath have one last story to tell!
As the end draws closer for Italian Blackened Thrash trailblazers Necrodeath, the quartet have unveiled “Storytellers of Lies” as the first harbinger preceding their final album “Arimortis“, which is set for a 17th January 2025 via Time To Kill Records arrival. That will be followed by a farewell tour as the band bring to a close a 40 year career that began in 1984 with the cult demo tape “The Shining Pentagram“.
The band comment: “‘Storytellers of Lies’ is a pure thrash track, fast and immediate, reminiscent of the classic Necrodeath sound from the very first note.
The lyrics, highly provocative, are a clear denunciation of the music business world. These storytellers, in exchange for money, offer you nothing but the false hope of stepping onto a stage you will never see…”.
Frontman Flegias commented: “’Arimortis’ is a term of Latin origin which indicates the end of a war, the moment in which the fallen are honoured and altars are erected in their name (‘arae mortis’, the altars of death). Even today in some parts of Italy the term ‘arimo’ is used to declare the end of the games. We wanted to use this allegory to seal a path that lasted forty years, full of satisfactions, disappointments and revenge. The songs that make up the album contain several references to our long career”.
