The Ajna Offensive just set March 17th as the North American release date for Venenum's debut album, "Trance of Death." The label comments:

"It makes a difference in effort and time either to dig six feet deep or to build a necropolis. Venenum decided for the latter…and it was worth every fucking second of waiting. Five years after the successful self-titled mini-album, Venenum strikes with debut full-length, 'Trance of Death.'

"The album presents Venenum on a new level of devotion and continues new and never-before-heard layers of darkness. The six new compositions and introduction theme are a grand melding of unique visions and unaltered traditions woven and blended into a complex unit of sacred horror. 'Trance of Death' is far away from being another one-dimensional tribute to the grave: it is reverence and praise, a hymn to the impending end of all things."
