Belphegor - Pestapokalypse VINuclear Blast
There were about 6 kajillion metal CDs released on Halloween in the U.S., many because the band or label thought it would be the perfect "evil" day to release a heavy metal CD. Belphegor is a band that really did deserve to have their CD released on Halloween.

Pestapokalypse VI is a brutal and evil blackened death metal CD. It's a concept album based on the devil, pestilence and the apocalypse. The songs are extreme and highly technical with monstrous blast beats and precise guitar lines.

Belphegor proves it can be blasphemous in multiple languages. The combination of death metal growls and black metal rasps on the CD are in English, German and Latin. The Austrian band delivers a sick and twisted slab of extreme brutality that is the perfect soundtrack to a Halloween party in hell.
