NECRONOMICON To Headline Toronto's UNHOLY STEELE METAL FEST

November 19, 2009

Quebec, Canada's black/death metal trio NECRONOMICON will headline the Unholy Steele Metal Fest, set to take place December 19 at The Poor Alex (772A Dundas St. West) in Toronto, Ontario, Canada. Also scheduled to appear are PANZERFAUST and WETWORK. More bands will be announced soon.

"The Time is Now", the new video from NECRONOMICON, can be viewed below. The clip was shot last year with Benoit Nantel (GHOULUNATICS, URBAN ALIEN, LES ECORCHES) who "did his best to capture the band's atmosphere and power." NECRONOMICON is said to be "really satisfied" with the end result and plans to work with Nantel again in the near future.

"The Time is Now" comes off NECRONOMICON's forthcoming album, "Return of the Witch", which was mastered with reputed engineer Maor Appelbaum (HALFORD, YNGWIE MALMSTEEN, THERION, etc). An early 2010 release via an as-yet-undisclosed label is expected.

Tracks from the upcoming CD are now available for streaming on the band's MySpace page.

"Return of the Witch" features guest appearances by Arianne Fleury (ex-AUGURY) and Roxanne Constantin (NEGATIVA, QUO VADIS),among others.

The band previously stated that the follow-up to 2003's "The Sacred Medicines" would "probably be the fastest and most brutal" CD the group has released thus far.

Other songtitles set to appear on the album include "Into the Fire", "Alpha Omega", "The Awakening", and "Return of the Witch".
