“Martyrs Shrine is an extreme metal band from Melbourne, Australia, formed in 2005. Founding member Mike Forsberg recorded albums and toured extensively with some of Australia’s most successful metal bands including Mortification (Christian death metal pioneers), Ragewar (Australian industrial metal band), Cybergrind (featuring ex-Mortification member Michael Carlisle) and Excarnated. Martyrs Shrine’s self-titled debut album was released in October 2007 to high acclaim and re-issued in 2008 by Soundmass. From the vault comes this long-lost recording entitled ‘Anthems Of Solemn’, a collection of demos from the very beginnings of Martyrs Shrine, recorded and mixed by former Cybergrind bassist Peter ‘Pentridge Pete’ Sheils. With Martyrs Shrine’s distinctive sound these previously unreleased recordings are recommended for fans of early Mortification, Bolt Thrower and Napalm Death.” -Roxx Records
