THE BEAST

After some delays due to the Coronavirus pandemic, the highly anticipated reissue of the debut album by Italy's death metal juggernauts   FULCI   is finally set to arrive tomorrow,   May 21st 2021 . The new remastered edition of    "Opening The Hell Gates"   will be released via   Time To Kill Recor ds .

An exclusive cassette edition for North America of    "Opening The Hell Gates"   has also been confirmed via   Maggot Stomp .

Recently  FULCI  released a lyric video for the song   "Among the Walking Dead"   at   THIS LOCATION !

The first single   "Paura"   is still available   HERE .  "Paura"   is one of the bonus tracks included in the reissue. This instrumental song was directly inspired by the soundtrack of   "City of the Living Dead" / "Paura nella Città dei Morti Viventi" , a 1980 Italian supernatural horror film directed by   Lucio Fulci .

“Opening the Hell Gates”   offers 12 tracks that masterfully blend the brutality and technical proficiency of Cannibal Corpse, the groove and mosh parts of Devourment and Skinless with melodies and sinister ambiences inspired by the horror films of   Lucio Fulci .

Equally brutal and skilful, cinematic and haunting,   “Opening the Hell Gates”   shows a young band that can surely rival with the very best and most inspired moments of many death metal icons.
