EMBRACE DAMNATION have been taking the world by storm with their new release, “Glory of a New Darkness”, which has been receiving radio play and great reviews! Look for an upcoming Interview in S.O.D. Magazine. Editor David Horn calls it a “titanic release” and states the following:

“Head the call of Satan as the warriors of darkness ride forth from the nether-realms once again to lay waste to the pitiful hopes and dreams of humanity. Join the demonic force that is Embrace Damnation as they fight side by side with the twisted and deformed minions of Hell to achieve the Glory of a New Darkness. Feel the thunderous clamor of odes to death and destruction such as “Throne of Chaos”, “Diabolic Possession” and “The Eternal Damned”. There is no hope for salvation, only violence, disease and death await the unconverted. Abandon all hope and Embrace Damnation!”

They have a new lineup for live shows and will be announcing some major show dates soon! Make sure to stop by their MySpace page for all the update info on the progression of this Brutal Death Metal project! http://www.myspace.com/embracedamnation69
