HELL MILITIA’s debut album, “Canonisation Of The Foul Spirit”, was originally released back in 2005. It has finally received the reissue it deserves, courtesy of Darkness Shall Rise Productions. This album is a crucial yet often overlooked piece in the French Black Metal scene, reflecting the band’s significant contribution to the genre. Drawing on the raw aggression of ANTAEUS and the grim essence of Les Légions Noires movement, HELL MILITIA expertly blends these influences to create a sound that is both unsettling and powerful. The album opens with the tone setter ‘Burning Human Pigs’, showcasing their ability to craft haunting melodies beneath the ferocity of their instrumentation forged by guitarists Arkdaemon and T. Persecutor, and drummer Dave Terror. Vocalist Meyhnach, known for his work with MUTIILATION, delivers some of his most compelling performances as in ‘Torture Of The Saints’, ‘Black Arts Of Crime’, ‘Dead Children’s Choir’, ‘Black Fucking Cancer’ and the ALICE COOPER cover ‘Years Ago’, heightened the album’s allure. Despite mixed reviews upon its initial release, this album captures a distinctive essence that poised to resonates with fans of the genre, featuring a propulsive sound that laid the groundwork for the future of French Black Metal and beyond. This reissue comes in several formats, including digipak CD, cassette and vinyl in three different colors, all expertly mastered by Patrick W. Engel at Temple Of Disharmony studio. “Canonisation Of The Foul Spirit” is an essential listen for any Black Metal enthusiast and this re-issue share another chance to rejoice.
