The vampiric opus returns: Ancient's 1997 cult black metal masterpiece Mad Grandiose Bloodfiends is officially reissued!
Originally released via Metal Blade Records in 1997, Mad Grandiose Bloodfiends captures the Norwegian black metal pioneers at their most theatrical, atmospheric, and unhinged. Helmed by mastermind Aphazel alongside vocalist/drummer Lord Kaiaphas and vocalist Erichte, the record blends ferocious black metal core with sweeping keyboards, gothic pianos, and avant-garde cinematic flair.
From the sweeping dread of "Malkavian Twilight" to the vampiric march of "Vampirize Natasha", this album remains a high-water mark of 90s symphonic extreme metal experimentation.
