Siege Engine Records is proud to present the LP version of the debut album from Cosmic Church,  "Absoluutin Lävistämä".

Cold melodies further enhanced by bleak, desperate vocals, stand forth as a monument, while yet serving as a new imprint, to Finnish black metal.

-New and revised artwork and layout specifically designed for the LP version

Mitochondrion - Parasignosis 2xLP


In a time where a majority a split releases are comprised of bands who seemingly have little common ground, much less any familiarity with one another, fellow Canadians Mitochondrion and Gyibaaw are poised to reverse that trend. Having built a bond through mutual musical and ideological admiration, in additional to having toured together, "Rituals of Transcendence / Liimk Halaayt " now serves as the physical manifestation of their brotherhood. The opening track, "Rituals of Transcendence", hammers that point further as members of both bands merge together seamlessly to create a truly unique instrumental piece.

Mitochondrion lays the groundwork for the remainder of the release with a re-recorded version of the title track from their 2006 demo, "Through Cosmic Gaze"; fully realizing its true potential with a powerful production. With a nod to the past, they quickly leap to the present, offering a rough mix of "Trials" from their highly anticipated sophomore album, "Parasignosis."

Gyibaaw summon forth two new tracks - their first offerings since their much talked about debut release, "Ancestral War Hymns." "Nalaxyuubm Wil Waal Wilduu" and "Iɫeh Tsimshian" further celebrate their Tsimshian heritage and continue to develop their already boundary defying sound.

Rounding out the release sees both bands paying tribute to bands, who just as themselves, forged solid identities within the underground. Mitochondrion blazes through a blistering cover of Rites of Thy Degringolade's "Totality" and commences with Inquisition's "Imperial Hymn for Our Master Satan", a more than worthy eulogy to a highly inimitable band. Gyibaaw continues their devotion to ancestral pride with a fitting tribute to Drudkh's "Furrows of Gods", with help from N. Yanchuk of Mitochondrion on guest vocals and mandolin.

Stellar artwork by HT (Antediluvian) channels the essence of both bands into a cohesive, four panel layout, further exemplifying this release as a true ideological union. Printed on red, textured stock and limited to 500 copies, "Rituals of Transcendence / Liimk Halaayt " proves yet another milestone in the rich history of Canadian metal.
