Relapse Records announces the first reissue in nearly 30 years of Opprobrium (formerly known as Incubus)’s landmark 1988 debut, Serpent Temptation.
Released at the height of extreme metal’s reign, the pioneering deathtrash record Serpent Temptation has since been rightfully hailed as an underground classic for its innovation and ferocity. Undoubtedly one of the heaviest records of the 1980s, the album has now been remastered by Brad Boatright (Sleep, Obituary, etc.) and includes four bonus tracks from the band’s 1987 demo plus an extended booklet.
The first single from the album, “Voices From The Grave”, is streaming below.
The remastered reissue of Serpent Temptation is due out worldwide on deluxe LP on January 15th. Serpent Temptation and bundle deals are available for physical pre-order via Relapse here, and digitally via the band’s Bandcamp page here.
