Following the release of their much-acclaimed, latest studio album ‘Hail The Abyss‘ (released in May 2023 via Napalm Records HERE) , blackened death metal frontrunners THULCANDRA have announced their first-ever live album, celebrating the first chapter and early days of the band!
‘Live Demise‘ was recorded live in 2011 at a hometown show in Munich, Germany, and features true gems that the band hasn’t performed in more than a decade, all with the original line-up consisting of Sebastian Ludwig, Tobias Ludwig, Matthias Landes (Dark Fortress, Noneuclid) and Steffen Kummerer (Obscura, Death, Cynic).

THULCANDRA’s rise to power ignited when the four-piece unleashed their debut album, ‘Fallen Angel’s Dominion‘, upon metaldom in 2010. Followed by their 2011 masterpiece, ‘Under a Frozen Sun‘, ‘Live Demise‘ contains brutal-as-hell classics from both records, like “Black Flags Of Hate”, “In Blood And Fire” and “The Spirit Of The Night”, aptly capturing the spirit and high-voltage energy of both the crowd and band. Ragers such as “Night Eternal” and “Fallen Angel’s Dominion” perfectly showcase the band’s raw and intense performances in their early days, and prove how THULCANDRA has quickly stepped up as one of the leading bands of their genre!
Due to the pandemic, which was subsequently followed by their latest studio album ‘Hail The Abyss‘, ‘Live Demise‘ could not be released alongside THULCANDRA‘s 20th anniversary as originally planned. Now, with mixing and mastering by Dan Swanö (Katatonia, Edge Of Sanity, Dissection) and cover artwork designed by Herbert Lochner, this very special release will become available in only strictly limited editions exclusively via Napalm Records and at THULCANDRA‘s upcoming live shows – including their European co-headlining run with legendary Swedish black and death metal band Sacramentum with support from Nephylim. The tour begins January 2025; find all upcoming dates listed below!
