Lucifer Rising Records is proud to announce the reissue of Horror Music, the first volume of the historic anthology by Death SS, retracing the seminal early phase of the band's career.
Originally released in 1996, this landmark double LP marked a crucial turning point in the band's history. It was the first release born from the strategic collaboration between Steve Sylvester and Vittorio Lombardoni (Self Distribuzione). From that partnership, Lucifer Rising Records was established, launching an artistic and distribution alliance that has successfully continued for over thirty years.
Horror Music is far more than a compilation. It stands as a true chronological document covering the period 1977-1996, capturing the evolution of Death SS: from the occult and underground atmospheres of their early years to the full compositional maturity achieved in the mid-1990s.
This new edition has been carefully curated to preserve and enhance the refined gothic aesthetic that has always defined the band's identity. The release features elegant Pantone gold finishes and an 8-page maxi-booklet, including the original band history written by Italian journalist Beppe Riva.
All tracks have been newly remastered from the source materials, with the aim of refining and enhancing a work created three decades ago, while fully respecting its original sonic identity and restoring greater depth, clarity and overall cohesion to the listening experience.
The album will be released in all physical and online stores worldwide this Friday, 20 February. Link
