Known the world over as one of the founding fathers of death metal, Deicide remains one of the most influential and controversial metal bands to grace the genre to this very day. With a relentlessly brutal sound and uncompromisingly blasphemous lyrics, Deicide helped set the standard for death metal over three decades ago and have maintained them ever since. Recorded at the legendary Morrisound Studios in Florida, Scars of The Crucifix heralded a return to form for the death metal originators who after leaving their previous label were full of venom, hate and aggression, all of which was channeled into this Earache Records masterpiece! Featuring 9 tracks of brutal anti-Christian invective supported by a barrage of blast-beats and grimly direct riffing. Unavailable on vinyl since its original release way back in 2004!
