Unholy, from Finland, formed in 1988 & were among the first doom metal bands from the country. In the band’s earlier years, starting under the moniker of Holy Hell, their style began as more a black/death/doom metal mix but progressed to a style of atmospheric, experimental doom metal. Unholy recorded 4 albums throughout their career before disbanding in 2002 & leaving a legacy as a very influential & legendary act in the Finnish doom metal scene who are still highly respected today, alongside other classic Finnish acts such as Thergothon.
‘The Second Ring of Power’ was the band’s second studio album, & continued the boundary breaking approach to experimental doom metal which the band had established with debut album, ‘From the Shadows’, mixed with strong atmospherics & unusual structures. Unholy has remained a cult act over the years with a recent surge in interest, as the band announce a possible comeback in 2012.
This edition of ‘The Second Ring of Power’ is a dream come true for fans, as the band themselves have provided footage of a rare live performance in Imatra Finland, from 1994, featuring classic Unholy tracks.
Preorder now for 17th October 2011 release |

| There have been some problems with "The Second Ring of Power" DVD manufacturing process. Video may work poorly with some DVD players. Peaceville Records is analyzing the problem. We'll follow the situation and give more information if necessary. |

I missed the post in November saying there'd be live shows.
Will this be with the Jarkko/Pasi/Jan/Ismo line-up? Does that mean the set-list will be only old stuff? Will it be only festivals or also normal club shows? |
