Some of the tracks are more straight-forward while others contain some twists and parts that are new to the Hellripper sound. As always, the whole writing and recording process was done at home by myself, with a few friends of mine contributing some additional vocals and lead guitar parts. The album was mixed by myself and was mastered by Brad Boatright at Audiosiege who did an amazing job.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cSka\u00f0valdur did an excellent job, as he always does, of creating a piece of artwork that both represents the album\u2019s themes, as well as being a somewhat of a homage in style to the old B-horror movie posters that inspired a few of the album\u2019s tracks.\u201d<\/p>\n<div class=\"image floatedright\">\n<table width=\"100%\" align=\"center\" cellspacing=\"0\" cellpadding=\"0\" border=\"0\">\n<tr valign=\"top\">\n<td><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.metalforcesmagazine.com\/site\/wp-content\/themes\/metalforces\/images\/spacer.gif\" width=\"10\" border=\"0\"><\/td>\n<td>\n<div align=\"center\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.metalforcesmagazine.com\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/hellripper_theaffairofthepoisonsnews.jpg\" height=\"250\" width=\"250\" border=\"0\"><\/p>\n<table width=\"100%\" align=\"center\" cellspacing=\"0\" cellpadding=\"0\" border=\"0\">\n<tr valign=\"top\">\n<td>\n<div align=\"left\"><span class=\"smalltext\"><\/span><\/div>\n<\/td>\n<td>\n<div align=\"right\"><span class=\"smalltext\"><\/span><\/div>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/table>\n<\/div>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/table>\n<\/div>\n<p>The track listing is as follows;<\/p>\n<p>01. \u2018The Affair Of The Poisons\u2019<br \/>\n02. \u2018Spectres Of The Blood Moon Sabbath\u2019<br \/>\n03. \u2018Vampire\u2019s Grave\u2019<br \/>\n04. \u2018Beyond The Convent Walls\u2019<br \/>\n05. \u2018Savage Blasphemy\u2019<br \/>\n06. \u2018Hexennacht\u2019<br \/>\n07. \u2018Blood Orgy Of The She-Devils\u2019<br \/>\n08. \u2018The Hanging Tree\u2019<\/p>\n<p>An official lyric video was created for the track \u2018Spectres Of The Blood Moon Sabbath\u2019.
