Background information über 'Four Decades Of Death'

"Four Decades Of Death," the posthumous anniversary album by Thanatos, commemorates the band’s 40-year legacy as one of the pioneers of Dutch extreme metal. Emerging in 1984, Thanatos has carved a niche within the death metal genre by consistently delivering raw and relentless music. This celebratory album serves as an anthology of previously unreleased tracks, carefully curated from their extensive catalog spanning four decades. The album not only reflects their musical evolution but also captures the aggressive spirit that has defined their sound. This release is particularly significant as it includes a bonus DVD featuring their final live performance from 2022, which was filmed at the Baroeg Open Air festival in Rotterdam in front of a passionate audience of 8000 fans. This multi-camera recording immortalizes their last show, offering a dynamic visual and auditory experience that showcases Thanatos's profound impact on the metal scene.

The album offers a nostalgic journey through time with remakes of early demos and rare recordings that showcase the band’s ability to remain relevant while staying true to their roots. With tracks like "A-Thanasia" and "Putrid Existence," listeners can appreciate how Thanatos has maintained its ferocity while evolving its sound. The inclusion of newer compositions such as "Violent Death Rituals" further highlights their adaptability and continuous creative vigor. This collection not only celebrates Thanatos's historic career but also serves as a final testament to their enduring influence on death metal enthusiasts worldwide.
