On September 14th 2012 Europe will be assaulted by an audio force that promises to make your ears bleed. The day will go down in infamy because Velvet Acid Christ has returned to its evil roots of electronic dance music with the new longplayer "Maldire". The artwork is done by Seven of Quartier Macabre and Joseph Schulthise. The booklet will contain all lyrics. No frills, no box sets. No singles. Just a strong, yes a really strong LP with 11 tracks. The vibe is spooky and angry. Very musical and epic. The album is inspired by the witches and warlocks who were murdered by the roman and french Christians. VAC tapped into their energy, their will and channeled their vile hatred. Velvet Acid Christ´s Ode to all the Northern European Pagans.
