Renowned producer Peter Tägtgren (DIMMU BORGIR, IMMORTAL) created the massive sound of “The Great Mass”.Released in a luxuary 96 pages Art Book wrapped in a folded poster, introducing 46 paintings & photographies of Seth Siro Anton and music compositions of Christos Antoniou. Of course SEPTICFLESH do not neglect their trademark Metal sound: Seth's deep growls complemented by Sotiris Anunnaki's stunning clear vocals are carried by razor sharp riffing and a relentlessly pounding rhythm section consiting of Seth's bass and drummer Fotis Benardo. The orchestral parts were recorded with the FILMharmonic Orchestra Prague including full choir and boy soprano. “The Great Mass” shows this band at the peak of their evolution over seven full-length releases since SEPTICFLESH’s founding in 1990, in which the band combines massive deadly guitars at the edge of blackness with haunting gothic melodies and cinematic symphonic arrangements. The Greeks take the next logical step in following the course they highly successfully set on their celebrated comeback-album “Communion” (2008). SEPTICFLESH’s new songs are the audible evidence of guitarist Christos Antoniou finishing his studies of classical composition with academic honours and distinction. The choirs of its orchestral version are sung in French, and other languages such as Italian and German can be heard on this bonus CD.“The Great Mass” is a new symphonic masterpiece that constitutes a quantum leap in the art of amalgamating orchestral music with Heavy Metal.
