Deicide - Album Was NOT 'Banned' Due To Content


Ginza.se, one of Sweden's largest online music stores, has dismissed as "completely wrong" a press release issued by Earache Records claiming that "Ginza.se has barred the sale of Deicide's latest album, 'The Stench of Redemption', citing the blasphemous CD sleeve art, controversial lyrical subject matter and the fact that Deicide mainman Glen Benton has an upside-down cross branded into the center of his forehead as their reasoning."

In an e-mail sent to blabbermouth.net earlier today, Nisse Jonson, Ginza.se's Purchase Manager, stated, "This is completely wrong. We don't have any problems regarding Deicide more than that their last productions didn't sell very well in our webshop. Therefore we didn't purchase it in the first place."
