...we don't want to be just one style. If you see the 3 tracks on "Dark..." are all different!! "Foetus Noose" is brutal death metal, "Forged in Fire" is a heavy metal cover version song (by ANVIL - gods!!!) and "Dark Is The Season" is a rumbling doom-laden song. See? All different.

The title, and the title track are to do with the excellent film "Blue Velvet" by David Lynch. See the film if you have trouble understanding the song, it will blow your mind!
BENEDICTION released Dark is the Season EP on this day in 1992 through Nuclear Blast.
The EP includes a cover of ANVIL's "Forged in Fire", the title track of their third album released in 1983.
We are all very big fans of ANVIL (they fuckin' rule!!) so we thought we'd do it to give our thanks to such a killer band! (Lips is GOD!)
