The Altar Of Plagues Trilogy vinyl boxset, Profound Lore’s 300th release, sees the three landmark Altar Of Plagues full-length albums, White Tomb, Mammal, and Teethed Glory And Injury, re-issued with new artwork and design, presented in a collectors boxset. The limited edition vinyl boxset contains five records total, each in their own sleeve, all re-mastered for vinyl from the original mixes, with White Tomb being a single LP and Mammal and Teethed Glory And Injury each a double LP respectively. This also marks the first time Profound Lore has actually pressed Mammal on vinyl format. “It’s harsh; it’s menacing; it’s bleak; it is one miserable, death-obsessed, vicious piece of work...” – Pop Matters, on Mammal “It suggests the heyday of Touch and Go, Nine Inch Nails in their prime, or Swans at their vitrolic apex.” – Pitchfork, on Teethed Glory And Injury

Teethed Glory And Injury by Altar Of Plagues

Altar Of Plagues

Teethed Glory And Injury
Profound Lore

Now available on vinyl in a limited edition, pressed on heavy wax at 45 RPM.   Already recognized as one of the underground’s best live acts, Ireland’s Altar of Plagues released their debut album White Tomb in 2009, garnering widespread acclaim as one of the most prominent contemporary groups merging the genres of black metal, post-metal, experimental and ambient. Refining their sound even further with 2011’s Mammal, the band distanced themselves from the post-black metal stereotype, delivering something darker, bleaker and more singular. A North American tour followed with label mates The Atlas Moth, culminating in an appearance at the 2012 Hopscotch Festival. Now, Altar of Plagues emerges with Teethed Glory and Injury, their most accomplished work to date. The nine-track album is unlike anything the group has done before, pushing further into new sonic terrain. Realized primarily on analog equipment in the studio, it incorporates more ambient, noise and electronica elements in the signature Altar of Plagues sound, distancing them further from the so-called post-metal movement. A true exploration of sound rather than simply a collection of riffs backed by a steady rhythm section, Teethed Glory and Injury is the product of a band in their own league, aeons beyond the work of their contemporaries.

Renowned for their visceral blend of black metal and epic post-rock, Ireland’s Altar of Plagues released their first full-length album White Tomb on Profound Lore after a pair of well-regarded EPs. The critically acclaimed debut immediately resonated with fans of Isis, Wolves in the Throne Room and Agalloch, landing on many year-end lists and establishing the band as a force to be reckoned with. Not content to rest on their laurels, the band stepped it up a notch, doing tour runs in Europe and pulling off a very successful six-week jaunt across the United States. Altar of Plagues’ sophomore album is one of the most anticipated extreme metal releases of 2011. With Mammal, the band delivers their bleakest, most punishing work to date—a milestone of post-black metal that towers over all others in the genre. Comprised of four extended, time-stretching tracks, Mammal is a forward-thinking exploration of new realms in experimental and ambient music. The band has pushed their sound to a new level, and this is their masterpiece.

Having gained quite a reputation from their epic debut EP Sol and their recent UK tour with Norwegian legends Mayhem, Altar of Plagues have morphed their layered sound into an apocalyptic sonic maelstrom on White Tomb. The two-track album takes the band's black metal foundations and builds on them an expansive, ambient, experimental work--a bleak vision of desolate and abandoned urban wastelands. If bands like Wolves in the Throne Room conjure scenes of epic nature, massive cascading waterfalls, and engulfing forests, Altar of Plagues create stark images of crumbling skyscrapers, dying and rotten urban structures, empty highways, and desolate oceans.  The Irish band's talent lies in their innovative and visceral mix of styles, including the slow, trudging doom of Khanate and Burning Witch; the minimal electronica and haunting ambient industrial of Cold Meat Industry and Tesco bands; the towering apocalyptic vibes of Old Man Gloom and old-school Isis; and the instrumental wonders portrayed by Mogwai and Red Sparowes. White Tomb was mastered by Colin Marston (of Krallice / Behold... The Arctopus / Dysrhythmia) and features guest vocals from Nathan Misterek of the now-defunct doom gods Graves at Sea.
