Denver, Colorado-based progressive death metal band Pile Of Priests issued digital single \u2018Redemption Per Cruciatu\u2019 independently on October 6th, 2017, which is available for purchase via the band\u2019s Bandcamp page here<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Translated from Latin, \u2018Redemptionem Per Cruciatu\u2019 means \u2018Redemption Through Torture\u2019 as the band explains: \u201cThe song is about the centuries of child molestation within the Catholic Church, and in particular one Wisconsin priest who sexually molested over 200 deaf children between 1950 and 1974. He was never punished by the Vatican hierarchy or by the criminal justice system of the United States.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe song musically starts out with an eerie bass intro to portray the sadness and trauma of all the affected victims. It then progresses into a fast-paced melodic ride of pure anger that is sure to rile up the listener.\u201d<\/p>\n
