The first re-release of the second full-length studio album by cult American Black/Death Metal band.
Due to a bunch of business related problems it took Florida’s Equinox quite a while to get this album out, but the result is definitely worth the long wait!
Equinox is one of the most underrated acts ever to emerge out of sunny Florida and “Journey Into Oblivion” a musical roller coaster ride through about an hour of classic Black/Death Metal. Unlike the current trend to blast as fast as you can, Equinox took a different direction and perform their material mostly very midpaced, partly Doomy and partly fast. The dark and very heavy riffing often brings Black Sabbath to mind, while the soloing is totally in the vintage Slayer vein. The vocals sound totally possessed and are a mixture of Black and Death Metal, yet very impressive and charismatic.
Equinox are totally old school, and that’s more than fine as they come up with songs full of interesting riffs and memorable parts. The guys still know what a good song demands in order to stand the test of time, probably because their influences come from all those acts that are eternal to many of us nowadays (Possessed, Celtic Frost, Destruction, Slayer, Bathory, Sodom, Venom, etc.). 
The line-up includes guitarists Pete Slate (Druid Lord, ex-Acheron, ex-Incubus and Tony Blakk (Druid Lord, Massacre (live), ex-Diabolic (live), ex-Acheron), and vocalist/bassist Matt Wagner.
Recorded and mixed at Morrisound Studios, Tampa, Florida by Ji and Tom Morris (Sepultura, Kreator, Morbid Angel) and the band.
Completely remastered re-release on black vinyl.
Vic Records, 2003/2024 (VIC316LP). Made in the Netherlands.
