SETH
La France des Maudits

CD in Digipak with 16-page booklet

French black metal pioneers SETH have once again lit the flame of the early days with ‘La Morsure du Christ’, which can be seen as a sequel to their 1998 acclaimed debut ‘Les blessures de l'âme’.

Returning to their original sound, the band use French alexandrine verses in their lyrics and choose a striking image as an album art. In a world moving further away from religion and spirituality, the demise of Notre Dame de Paris symbolizes the end of the Christian reign and the ultimate betrayal of God. From the ashes of the cathedral, a godless world will come into being.

For fans of ENTHRONED, ABIGOR, ANCIENT, AETERNUS

Official reissue in limited edition six panel Digipak Cd of the legendary Ep originally released in 1997 with restored original cover artwork and unreleased photos.

A masterpiece made of epic songs, furious harsh vocals, tight drumming and a strong romanticism which built the very essence of 90's Black Metal.

Re-release including bonus tracks “Les Sévices de la Peste’’ et ‘‘Corpus et Anima’’.

When SETH released their legendary debut “Les Blessures de l’Âme” in 1998 it was greeted with enthusiasm by reviewers and fans alike. The French combined harsh but melodic Black Metal with a well thought out concept on vampirism. The fiendish shrieks and rasps of vocalist Vicomte Vampyr Arkames combined with the fierce and cold buzzing of the crushing guitars delivered the ideal sound for their artistic expression. Brutal, dark and surprisingly catchy “Les Blessures de l’Âme” creates gothic atmospheres supported by intelligent keyboard textures. The album quickly gained the status of a cult classic that is hard to find as it is long sold out.

Blue and black marbled 12" vinyl (33rpm) in deluxe gatefold sleeve with gold foil, 8-page insert and A2 poster.
Limited to 500 copies worldwide!

Hailing from the heart of French black metal, SETH presents a grim and haunting narrative with their relentless musical fury. Glazed with elements from the French Revolution, new opus ‘La France des Maudits’ takes inspiration from the very streets that bled under the guillotine’s kiss.
With ‘La France des Maudits’ SETH carve out the anthem for those rising from the ruins, the unyielding, the eternal rebels. This black metal revival offers a narrative of relentless fury, invoking the spirit of insurrection, liberation, and defiance against divine oppression. With tracks such as “Paris des Maléfices” and “Et Que Vive le Diable!”, they weave a dark tapestry of sound, showcasing their unique niche in atmospheric black metal. Anthems of resistance that echo the cries of a new age unwilling to kneel before divine decay.
Dive into the tumultuous serenade of ‘La France des Maudits’, an album that roars in the key of revolution.
