BLOOD RED THRONE was formed by members Tchort and Død in hopes of fulfilling
their goal of creating aggressive and highly energetic music. With a combined
musical background participating in Emperor, Satyricon, Einherjer and Carpathian
Forest, the duo set to combine influences from bands including Cannibal Corpse,
Deicide, Gorguts, Suffocation and Slayer.
The band’s debut, Monument of Death, was released to worldwide critical
acclaim in late 2001 and has since release consistently found new fans. The
band’s new album is expected to continue to expand their worldwide fanbase while
finding support throughout the worldwide metal community.
Advance play copies of Affiliated With the Suffering will be serviced to key
media in late November, with an aggressive loud rock/college radio campaign
planned to impact January 21. The label is looking to bring the band to the U.S.
for a showcase performance as part of 2003’s Metal Fests now in the planning
stages.
