“Bloodred Fullmoon” the 2006 demo from Greek Black Metallers PROFANE PRAYER has been released by Misantrof, the label founded and headed by CARPATHIAN FOREST’s Daniel Vrangsin, through its Music Archives, the division of the “anti” label that was set up to house and release a historical music collection of rare, deleted, or difficult to find items, and includes material from bands such as DEATHCULT, ORCUSTUS, NIDINGR and AMOK, amongst others. Like all Misantrof releases, PROFANE PRAYER’s “Bloodred Fullmoon” is available for free download, together with artwork and band photos at http://profaneprayer.misantrof.net/ Track listing as follows:

1. Bloodred Fullmoon
2. Sorrow
3. Pain Is Taking Shape
4. Apocalyptic

Formed in 2005 by guitarist G, vocalist The Saint (HORDES OF DECAY) and drummer/guitarist THC (HORDES OF DECAY), PROFANE PRAYER’s line-up now includes Sick Mind on bass. Drawing its early inspiration from traditional Black Metal bands such as CARPATHIAN FOREST and DARKTHRONE, PROFANE PRAYER has spent the intervening years developing its own sound and cutting its teeth on the local scene, regularly supporting bands like SEPTIC FLESH, THE HAUNTED, DESTRUCTION, and MOONSORROW. The band has just finished recording and mastering the debut full-length album “Eye of Sin”.

Talking about the collaboration with Misantrof, G commented: “We had run a special promotion offering the demo for just postage costs in September and had a lot of takers, so we suggested to our manager that we make it available for free download on MySpace. Since MySpace sound quality is pretty bad, she wasn’t too taken with the idea, and instead played it to Vrangsinn, who she also manages, and he liked it enough to offer us a release through the Archives. That’s a much more satisfactory way of doing things. We have the support and facilities offered by Misantrof, and, more importantly, the material is available in the highest possible sound quality. Considering that one of the reasons we started off as musicians in the first place was CARPATHIAN FOREST, who our manager also works with, it’s quite a coincidence how everything has worked out. ”

PROFANE PRAYER will also feature on Misantrof’s “Holy Fucking Antichristmas 2009” compilation, which will be released on 13th December. The track, which was especially written for the compilation and was recorded and mastered by George Bokos at the Basement Studios in Athens, will receive its live debut on the 20th December, when the band appears at the 10th anniversary concert for the Metal Eagle Magazine at the Sin City Club in Athens.
