Saidan - Desecration of a Lustful Illusion (Raw Black Metal VHS RIP)

A new Saidan album is imminent, and what better way to herald its arrival than a promo video stacked with debonair badassery, flaming swords, rooftop solos and VHS flicker, smashed into orbit by the ferocious grandiosity of the music.

Their debut, Onryō II remains a landmark album in all of Black Metaldom, particularly for US Black Metal of recent year, with the band coining the term Alternative Black Metal for a sound which defies being pinned down yet is absolutely definitive in its execution mixing epic anthemic melodic black metal, heavy metal, post hardcore, J-rock with supernatural psychological horror.

If you liked Onryō, prepare yourself for this full length and enjoy this single many times over in the meantime.
