Blasphemica by Shadowspawn

Shadowspawn is back with their highly anticipated fourth release, “Blasphemica”. The new
album from the Danes demonstrates the band’s growth and evolution, while still retaining their
signature no-frills-death-metal sound. However, “Blasphemica” walks the extra mile for the band
and pushes the boundaries of their musicality, incorporating elements of groove, darkness, and
brutality into a cohesive whole. The album showcases the band’s maturity as songwriters and their
ability to craft intricate, yet headbanging-worthy compositions.

With ten groovy death metal tracks, set in an abstract lyrical world of steampunk and religious
criticism in the pocket, the band visited Tue Madsen at the renowned Antfarm Studios, for drum
recording and, later, for mix and mastering, ensuring the best possible sound for their new opus.
This will be also Shadowspawn first album with their new drummer Lukas Meier, known from
The Petulant and Sacrificial.

Known for their unique blend of groovy and intense soundscapes, Shadowspawn was formed in
2013 by experienced men from the early Danish death metal scene, including well-known forces
from, among others, Sacrificial, The Petulant and Cinerator. With their distinct approach to
the genre, they have carved a path for themselves in the extreme music scene. From the bands
emerging, and with three highly praised releases already, Shadowspawn is a well known act in the
domestic metal scene, as well as abroad.

EMANZIPATION (EMZ) was founded in 1991 in Naestved, Denmark as a fanzine and released four issues in the period 1992 to 1994, tape traded like hell and made an international network in the extreme metal scene. In 1993 EMANZIPATION PRODUCTIONS was created but went on hiatus on 2000.
2020 sees the return of EMANZIPATION as an underground record label dedicated to old school extreme metal.
