NEWS RELEASE
Montreal, QC – February 21, 2020
For fans of Symphony X, Ayreon, Opeth
Progressive-death metal band ISLE OF THE CROSS’ debut album “Excelsis” is now available as of Feb 21st via ROCKSHOTS RECORDS.
Infusing a blend from the avant-garde realms of extreme, symphonic, melodic and technical death-metal, ISLE OF THE CROSS is led by composer and multi-instrumentalist Je Schneider.
The debut full length “Excelsis” is a concept release based on a tale of two lovers amidst betrayal, murder and their search to reunite in the afterlife. From the immediate and vicious thrust of the opening track ‘Sacrifice’, the listener is quickly catapulted into an enigmatic journey of sonic power. From the furious to the melodious opuses on the album, the listener is enveloped in a dynamic exploration until the very end. At the heart of ISLE OF THE CROSS is the conveyance of depth, poignancy, and redemption through the endurance of tragedy.
‘Excelsis’ was produced, mixed and mastered by Je Schneider.
