Maryland-based Imperial Crystalline Entombment have joined forces with French label Debemur Morti Productions. Having been in hibernation since 2004, this solar cycle sees the reawakening of an extra-dimensional black metal entity. Imperial Crystalline Entombment first gave a taste of their relentless frostbitten madness via a self-titled 2003 demo and cult 2004 debut full length Apocalyptic End In White. This year the frozen portal will open once again to spew forth new sonic devastation. The inimitable I.C.E. will unleash a long-awaited second long player via DMP, in addition their debut album (listen via Bandcamp below) will be re-released on CD.

The collective narrates:

"Imperial Crystalline Entombment emanates from inner space of inherent emptiness throughout all dimensions. This is a darkness beyond all darkness that was the bleak empty void before the creation of space and what you mortals call Dark Matter. Light and Dark are mere paradigms of human understanding, conjuring thoughts of Good and Evil and trivial mortal constructs. White is the absence of all color and life. The 'darkness' or bleak white essence of I.C.E is the absence of all creation and existence as you know it. Our 'darkness' is the unconscionable supreme authority of the Ancient Lord Råvaskeith who rules with a hatred that is far more absolute than any 'Evil' that humans can possibly comprehend. This may be confusing to you, but you will understand when the blizzard storms come howling, the sun freezes and the calamity begins…"
