re-issue of Exhumation's 1997 debut

Nowadays many fans of Swedish melodic death metal are familiar with Nightrage, which formed almost 20 years ago. Fans of 1990s melodic death metal might be interested to know that Nightrage's founder, the Greek-born guitarist Marios Iliopoulos had a band called Exhumation that formed in 1990 and broke up in 1999. Vic Records in 2019 has reissued the band's 1997 debut Seas of Eternal Silence. The album is readily available on YouTube and other places, but if you want the new Vic Records version go to the Dutch label's website and contact them and see about getting the new version.
