Volume IV will feature two legendary and classic Christian doom metal artists hailing from the early 2000’s. Up first on Side A the legendary Knoxville Tennessee based band PLACE OF SKULLS featuring the bands very first 3 track demo released in 2000, which is also when the band officially launched. PLACE OF SKULLS is the side project of Pentagram lead guitarist Victor Griffin. 2025 marks the bands 25^th year of existence and also the 25^th anniversary of this legendary demo. This recording was originally released in a very limited CDr pressing upon its initial release in a very limited quantity. This is the first time these tracks are being represented on vinyl and also on a replicated CD. Legendary doom music fully restored and remastered for your listening pleasure.

Volume IV will also feature on side B another classic Christian doom metal release from the band SWEET CICADA. This very short-lived Christian doom project only saw one release, but this epic Christian doom metal project needs to be heard. In 2004 the band would emerge with their 3 song demo entitled ‘Switch’ which was actually never released in ANY physical format. The band would record these three tracks and then disband before really ever getting off the ground, but this tracks are some beautiful doom that deserves to be heard. For the first time on CD or vinyl we have SWEET CICADA with ‘Switch’ and as an added bonus the 2015 recorded track the band did as a part of a short reunion. Another piece of Christian metal (specifically doom) we are excited to share with you and bring back to life. This one is definitely for fans of classic Black Sabbath and the tracks have been remastered and restored for vinyl and CD
