NECRONOMICON

Vinyl re-issue on black wax plus poster of the 3rd album from 1988 by this veteran German Thrash Metal band. With "Escalation", NECRONOMICON reached one of the creative peaks of its early career, refining the style established on its previous releases through more accomplished songwriting and sharper musicianship. While remaining firmly rooted in the ferocity of Teutonic Thrash, the band delivered a more mature, balanced and confident sound, strengthening its identity within one of the most competitive Metal scenes of the era.

The album stands out for its outstanding riffing, intense performances and an excellent balance between speed, melody and aggression. A stronger and clearer production enhances songs that reveal obvious musical growth without sacrificing the raw energy of the band's roots. "Escalation" is widely regarded by many fans as one of NECRONOMICON's finest releases and one of the most underrated gems of late eighties German Thrash Metal.
