Necrobutcher comments as follows:
“We wanted to document how great the band and set sounds like after almost 40 years of playing live. As a treat to our fans, we decided to release this live recording.”
He further continues…
“I knew from day one back in 1984 that this band was going to be outstanding—one of the best bands ever! I guess that‘s a big reason why we still are here after 39 years—and counting.”
‘Daemonic Rites’ marks the culmination of the ‘Daemon’ era, which commenced in 2019 with the release of their critically acclaimed studio album ‘Daemon.’ The journey continued with the savage EP ‘Atavistic Black Disorder’ in 2021, leaving audiences hungry for more.
