American black metal legend Xasthur has signed a partnership with German label Prophecy Productions. From the very beginning, Xasthur has left a deep impact on the US black metal scene and evolved into becoming one of the genre's most notorious and mysterious acts. Starting as a one-man band, Xasthur has always been noted for its extreme introversion and commitment to dwelling in the shadows. Since 1995, Xasthur has been releasing records that have been viewed as mandatory listening within the scene.
In the pursuit of bringing their sound to new audiences, Xasthur's signing with Prophecy Productions' ever-expanding roster is the next logical step. Prophecy Productions will launch this partnership with a new, limited edition EP that functions as an exclusive preview of Xasthur's upcoming full length, building on his new doomgrass style. The EP, Aestas Pretium MXVIII, will be sold exclusively on his forthcoming, extensive US tour - 30 dates, starting on 21st July, accompanying Six Organs Of Admittance and Wino. In 2018, Xasthur is full of energy and ready to expand.
The mastermind, Scott Conner (guitar/bass) had this to say: "I'm looking forward to working with Prophecy Productions. I'm glad that they are daring enough to be working with me on this new genre of music I'm building upon and that they're giving it a chance." In the player below you can watch and listen to Xasthur performing an unpluged acoustic live version of "Mirror In Your Face", in Portland, Oregon on 11th June 2017. Link
