"The Great Mass" is a new symphonic masterpiece that constitutes a quantum leap in the art of amalgamating orchestral music with Heavy Metal. It was recorded between July - September 2010 in Devasoundz (Greece) and The Abyss (Sweden) with renowned producer Peter Tägtgren, who created the massive sound of "The Great Mass". The orchestration was written by Christos Antoniou and recorded with the FILMharmonic Orchestra Prague, including full choir and boy soprano.
Septicflesh's new songs are the audible evidence of guitarist Christos Antoniou, finishing his studies of classical composition with academic honours and distinction. The Greeks take the next logical step to take the courses they highly successfully set on their celebrated comeback-album "Communion" (2008). "The Great Mass" shows this band at the peak of their evolution over seven full-length releases since Septic Flesh'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 art, by the hand of Seth (vocals, bass), is a very important part of this release, the principal artwork for "The Great Mass’" is shown on the limited digipak edition, the gatefold vinyl and the dust jacket of the collector’s book.
In 2021, "The Great Mass" was elected by Metal Hammer as the 9th best Symphonic Metal album of all time.

Second re-release of the debut full-length album by the cult Greek Atmospheric/Symphonic Death Metal band.
Since their reunion, Septicflesh (Septic Flash before) have established themselves as a leading force of Symphonic Dark Metal with their critically acclaimed masterpieces “Communion” (2008) and “The Great Mass” (2011). Yet the Greeks already won a dedicated and strong fan-base in their first incarnation as Septic Flesh.
Produced by former Rotting Christ keyboardist and Necromantia founder Magus Wampyr Daoloth, their debut full-length “Mystic Places Of Dawn” was released in 1994 and soon acquired cult status. All trademark elements of Septicflesh are already present such as their singing guitar sound and even classical influences. With interest in band's surging to new heights following the release of “The Great Mass”, their cult beginnings with “Mystic Places Of Dawn” and all songs of 1991’s “Temple Of The Lost Race” EP added as bonus tracks will now be available anew! A must have for all fans!!

"Ophidian Wheel" marks a critical turning point in the band's career. On this album, Septic Flesh further expanded their musical vocabulary, and added female soprano vocalist Natalie Rassoulis. The album sees the band moving even further into the Symphonic-laden and Classically-tinged Metal arrangements that have become their calling card.
Musically, this album is much more straightforward than previous albums, fusing an aggressive Death Metal style with elements of Gothic Rock.
Though someone named "Kostas" is credited for drums, all drums on this album were programmed.
The remastered re-release includes three previously unreleased bonus tracks. The release also features the brand-new cover artwork, designed by SepticFlesh vocalist/bassist Seth Siro Anton himself.

The album is widely considered to be Septic Flesh's most Experimental and Progressive release. Also, it is the only Septic Flesh album not to feature guitarist/composer Christos Antoniou, as he took a leave of absence from the band during this period. And, though someone named "Kostas" is credited as a session drummer, all drums were programmed.
Infectious but yet pummelling hooks give way to melodic interludes and then suddenly break into heavy passages with tortured, shrieked vocals; "Εσοπτρον" ("Esoptron") showcases a young Septic Flesh further honing their craft and cementing themselves among the Heavy Metal elite.
Long regarded as an essential record within the Gothic Metal world, "Esoptron" is now fully remixed and remastered and features a brand-new cover artwork (designed by Seth Siro Anton), as well as three bonus tracks. “Woman of the Rings” was previously available only on the long sold-out “DNA Choronzone” (aka "The Eldest Cosmonaut") EP, and the live versions of “Crescent Moon” and “Brotherhood of the Fallen Knights” have never been released before.

The first Septic Flesh release since 1991's "Temple Of The Lost Race" (EP) to feature a human drummer.
"A Fallen Temple" occupied a unique space in the band's history upon its original release in '98. The album featured re-recordings from their savage debut LP "Temple Of The Lost Race" interspersed amongst some of the band's most Avant-garde work to date.
The heightened atmospherics, synthesized orchestration, and angelic soprano vocals affirmed the bold and adventurous creative direction the band had begun to follow, and was the perfect bridge to what was coming with 1999's "Revolution DNA".
Now remastered and repackaged by front-man Seth Siro Antoniou, and includes four bonus tracks!

The Greek legend has finally returned from its undead slumber to unleash brooding visions of much darker times and space unto an unsuspecting world. "Communion" is the first album since the band's split up, after the release of "Sumerian Daemons" in 2003, and the first to be released under the name Septicflesh following the band's name change, known before as Septic Flesh. Septicflesh first announced a reunion show at the Metal Healing Festival in their home-country on February 19, 2007 and shortly hereafter a new full-length on French label Season of Mist.
Septicflesh have once more renewed and refined all their trademarks: on the top layer stand massive guitar-walls of Death, sometimes coming close to Blackness and often interlaced with intricate Technical string-filigree. Underlining this fierceness with haunting Gothic melodies, the band has added an epic dimension by including a full classical orchestra with more than 100 musicians, arranged by guitarist Christos Antoniou, who has a master's degree in concert music from the London College of Music. The FILMharmonic Orchestra Prague recorded the compositions with 80 instrumentalists and a choir of 32 singers.
The Extreme elements of Septic Flesh are tempered with melody and contrasted nicely by the Symphonic elements. The songwriting and arrangements are excellent. It's a great mix of tempos, intensities, and atmospheres. From the beautiful to the brutal, "Communion" covers all the musical bases, and this is one of the best albums Septicflesh has done!

Septic Flesh had a hard task to make something greater than their last record, "The Great Mass". "Titan" is a more than appropriate title for the epically epic damned ninth album from the Greek Metal masters. Titans are the most ancient of all deities depicted in Greek mythology – even older than the Olympic Gods themselves. They represent the forces of nature. No other title could have been more apt to represent Septicflesh's ninth full-length. "Titan" is the power of darkness made manifest in music.
"Titan" is not just a Metal masterwork, but a musical one at that. Listeners can blast any song for full wrecking effect or be completely immersed in the entirety of the album experience. Titan plays out like any great Symphonic overture that can stand up in a real debate to the great overtures of Bach and Beethoven. It’s not just a big, grandiose experience, it’s one where every detail has been perfected to enlighten any aural palette. Beautifully enthralling from the moment you hit "play", you are bombarded with crushing Metal with constantly changing tempos and full orchestral backing, from strings to horns, with every nuance played from intense to beautiful.
Guitarist Christos Antoniou, who passed his academic studies of classical composition with honours and distinction, already proved his prowess for orchestration with "Communion" (2008) and "The Great Mass" (2011). Yet on "Titan", the musician shows a new level of maturity in his use of classical instruments within a Metal context, hiring once again the services of the FILMharmonic Orchestra Prague. With Fotis Benardo's inhuman drum patterns and vocalist/bassist Seth "Siro" Anton's demonic growls coming straight from the Underworld, "Titan" actually stands an otherworldly, godlike album!

Live at the Metropolitan Theatre, Mexico City, 2nd February 2019. Audio and video formats together, featuring the live recording of Septicflesh’s once in a lifetime 2019 show, accompanied by the Toluca Philharmonica Orchestra in Mexico, conducted by the maestro Gerardo Urbán y Fernandez.
"Infernus Sinfonica MMXIX" is an utter masterpiece in nearly every way; a diamond in the rough of orchestral live shows. Even with Septicflesh’s brilliant use of orchestra in the studio since "Communion" back in 2008, little did you'll not realize how damned alive the beast could become!
The production is staggering. The orchestra is full and atmospheric, and sounds very close to the studio versions albeit with a sense of immediacy and living grandiosity, which works really well here. The mix is just stunning, and the partnership between powerful Metal-based instrumentation along with the Symphonic lends an almost tangible feel; as if you can really sink your teeth into the sound.
Probably what differentiates the tracks here from their studio editions, apart from the passionate Mexican crowd, are the demonic vocals of Seth Siro Anton. Yes, they sound great on the albums, but on this performance he just lets loose. This is one of the great vocal performances, and his impassioned growls help the tracks explode from the speakers. He holds the crowd in the palm of his hand with his various directions, demands and diabolical messaging.
It’s a brilliant live album, a fitting best-of, and an elevated aural experience of the world’s greatest Symphonic band! Septicflesh are the undisputable masters of Symphonic Death Metal, and this live experience is the perfect proof for this bold statement!!
