Description

End-time visions in D minor… Almost 3 years in the works, here is the brandnew album THE PAGAN
PANTHEON from LIVE BY THE SWORD. It takes the layering and elaborate structures of its
predecessor Cernunnos but with the direct and in-your-face approach of the LBTS early stuff. Topped off with the most powerful and compelling sound of all LBTS releases ever! Icy atmospheric epicness and a pagan combat-ready rocking drive with historical themes about tyrant leaders and apocalyptic prophecies that were never so actual as they are today. Exploring ancient history and recognize the recurring cycles and patterns, putting modern day events into a greater perspective… New to the band is drummer Frank Schilperoort (God Dethroned, The Monolith Deathcult) who puts his mark on the songs with ultra tight and creative drumming, relentless double bass parts and powerful rock beats. With 3 Dutchmen and a vocalist from the USA, there have always been international vibes going on in the band, but with guest vocalists Karl Willetts (Bolt Thrower, Memoriam) and Paul Jones (Enchantment, Crypt Feeder) both hailing from the UK, this album has become a collaboration that stretches across different seas and oceans…
“Blackened combat rock heresy” might cover the load to some extent, but what’s in a name… LBTS is a band exploring and crossing bounderies and will just play and combine the styles and themes they like. Keeping musical purists at bay but appeal to a selective group of open-minded exploring soldiers and vigilant individuals, no compromise! THE PAGAN PANTHEON is here and bound to be the ultimate LBTS album and an epic journey of ceremonial grace and primal destruction.
