Cruce Signatus has released the darkly progressive new single, "Vexillum Crucis", from its approaching self-titled debut full-length, due on 7 June through Metal Insider.
"Vexillum Crucis" haunts listeners with eerily distorted synths and adds glimmers of light throughout the foreboding atmosphere. Lighter synth touches add polish and sparkle to the cavernous, droning darkness beneath, swelling until they burst into triumphant, powerful melodies toward the end.
The USA-based Cruce Signatus is a project of David Frazer of Pillaging Villagers. Its self-titled debut full-length is the first of four epic concept albums which form the musical soundscape for a feature-length, animated anthology series. In collaboration with Heavy Metal Magazine illustrators such as Vincent Kings and Chris Anderson, this series unfolds the tale of an impoverished knight's quest to confront his sins as he navigates the monstrous brutality of the First Crusade.
