"... Formed in Ireland in 2006, Altar of Plagues drags black metal from the ancient forests and mountains to the crumbling cities and dark clouded skies. Incorporating traditional black metal influences such as early Emperor and In the Woods with the transcending and titan sounds heard among acts such as Cult of Luna and Neurosis, Altar of Plagues cinematic post-black metal is a modern day reflection on the sentiments of their counterparts; but longing for the past has become dread for the future, and the beauty of the forest has been destroyed by concrete and steel.

With two demos and a notable E.P released and having toured alongside scene veterans Mayhem as well as sharing stages with modern peers Wolves in the Throne Room, the band wasted little time in show casing their sound to an international audience with a considerable number of international shows already under their belts. With a debut album set for release on Profound Lore Records in early 2009, Altar of Plagues are sure to turn heads with their sombre orchestrations of dying planet...."

Hey my friends, congratulations on getting signed to Profound Lore! I honestly can't think of a more fitting label to suit you. Review of Sol is coming soon... I'm sorry it's taken me so long (again, heh). In short: I found it to be completely fantastic and quite deserving of being signed to a label like PFL.
