The Closing Irony

8 track retrospective from UK punk / metal legends Sacrilege! This release features tracks from the early demos and the studio albums Behind The Realms Of Madness, Within The Prophecy and Turn Back Trilobite.

Sacrilege are an utterly essential act in UK metal history guiding the listener from the crusty realms to the mountains of doom! They were one of the first bands of the 80s that both punks and metalheads rallied behind. Propelled by singer Lynda 'Tam' Simpson's ferocious vocals and politically charged lyrics, the band blended crust, thrash, hardcore, doom and death-metal to create a sound that has directly influenced scores of punks and heshers alike. Essential listening for crust punks and metalheads everywhere!
