BROKEN SPIRIT to have demo collection released on vinyl by GOATOWAREX

On December 1st internationally, Goatowarex is proud to present Broken Spirit‘s Demo Collections 2012-2017 on double-LP vinyl format. Originally released on CD in 2018 by Portugal’s elite Black Gangrene, this vinyl version will feature laser-etched artwork on Side D, the first of such type of release done by Goatowarex. As per the band’s wishes, it shall be limited to 160 copies, with newly remastered sound.

Emblematic of the newer breed of black metal coursing through the deepest, darkest veins of the underground, Australia’s Broken Spirit is unflinching misery & misanthropy incarnate. Perfectly monikered, Broken Spirit is but another face of prolific enigma B.H., who counts among his current endeavors Drohtnung, Grave Worship, Mors De Corpus, and Pestis Cultus. But, put more directly, indeed is Broken Spirit his most personal and most challenging face.

Broken Spirit‘s first public recording came with Promo 2013, a four-song fucking of your soul: blown-out but with a nuanced-if-peculiar approach, here was triumphantly turgid black metal that dared you to enjoy it. Picking up the pace, both release-wise and more so tempo-wise, was the three-song Rotting in Void a year later, with its disturbingly clanging riffs creating an unsettling dislocation of body and soul. Thereafter, with 2015’s Solò otro cerdó and successive, super-limited split tapes with the considerable likes of Obskuritatem and Drohtnung did Broken Spirit‘s sonics become more ghostly, hovering like a forever-lost spectre – truly, a Broken Spirit – but charging forward into a vortextural vacuum with self-inflicted violence, B.H. truly matching form with content.

It is with this history, this complementary alternate life to Broken Spirit‘s cult Vivid Dreaming debut LP (which will receive the Goatowarex vinyl treatment in the coming year) with Portugal’s likewise-elite Altare Productions, that Goatowarex wishes to preserve for posterity on black vinyl, serving as a reverberating curse before the next penultimate chapter begins…or ends.
