SAECULUM has to cancel the gig with ONHEIL & GORATH. It is the first time we cancelled a gig and we regret it. There was no way we could do this gig since there was a gap in our line up, and not enough time to get everybody ready to fill this hole. Hails to Gorath and Onheil and the venue 'de Oude Danserije' (Roosendaal).
=====================NEWS==================

ABOUT SÆCULUM:
"A SÆCULUM is a length of time roughly equal to the potential lifetime of a person or the equivalent of the complete renewal of a human population." SÆCULUM stands for absolute atheism, convince yourself that gods and ghosts do not exist and that religion is nothing more than a collection of fables. So we bring you Black Metal in its most pure form. The Cleansing is at hand. The world is CONTAMINATED by mankind's most disgusting phenomena: religion. .
BIOGRAPHY:
In the Autumn of 2004, SÆCULUM was formed by LASTER, STYNN and LAZARUH in order to inject some highly toxic poison into the veins of the perishing blackmetal scene.
They rapidly started recording tracks for a setlist of songs, starting with "CONTAMINATION" and "ETHNIC CLEANSING".
They're about our endless aversion towards every existing religion
in the past, nowadays and in the future.
"IMPRECATION" is based on an ancient incantation for transforming into a being, invisible to gods an demons.
"GENETIC FAILURE" is about the greatest flaw in evolutional history.
After that in early 2005, MOLESTRATOR was added to the line up.
"BENIGHTED" was also added to the setlist, so SÆCULUM soon started performing liveshows.
SÆCULUM recorded their first promotional EP called "EXORDIUM" merely a year after its birth.
It contains an Intro and 5 tracks of genuine, aggressive and melodic blackmetal, with a running time over 27 minutes. It was recorded at Syndicate studio in Breda by Ploert (Brutus)
TRACKLIST EXORDIUM:
INDUCTION
ETHNIC CLEANSING
IMPRECATION
CONTAMINATION
GENETIC FAILURE
BENIGHTED
LAZARUH and LASTER took care of the artwork together.
In order to the first full frontal attacks on stage, SÆCULUM needed a second guitarplayer. Schoft (BRUTUS, SATYRICON) seemed a perfect fit for the job.
In April 2006 Lazaruh decided to depart from SÆCULUM due to difference in musical taste.
SCHOFT picked up the bass and he proved himself worthy during our performances at the Summer Darkness festival in Utrecht and with Marduk at Nighttown. VLERK(BRUTUS) was assigned to be our session guitarplayer, and also he proved to be the right man for the following shows.
A reinforced and improved setlist will form the foundations of the upcoming dark era.
News and other developements will be announced on this myspace page or at www.saeculum.nl.
