25 Years Ago: ACHERON release Those Who Have Risen

It's occultist roots stemming back to the ancient Vampiric society of UR mixes well with our dark music. It is still very Satanic in nature, but it is something different than anything I wrote before.

ACHERON released their fifth full-length on this day in 1998 through Full Moon.

We left MORIBUND RECORDS due to the fact that they couldn't put out "Those Who Have Risen" in time. we departed on positive terms, but we needed to release the album. Thorns from FULL MOON PRODUCTIONS showed a lot of interest in putting it out, so I decided to sign a one album deal with them. Thus far I am very pleased with the results.

The album includes guest vocals from David Vincent (MORBID ANGEL) and George Corpsegrinder Fisher (CANNIBAL CORPSE).

Both of them are friends of mine and I admire their vocals very much. I felt that their contribution would be an added bonus to the new CD. As for working with them again, this was just a special guest appearance for "Those Who Have Risen".
