Going by the moniker of Skeletal Embrace this East Anglian 5-piece - formed in 1998 - have already recorded 3 CDs and had huge local success gigging locally coming second in Great Yarmouths Lock & Load Battle of the Bands.With influences from Death Metal, Thrash and more traditional Heavy Metal acts, by 2005 it was clear that the bands direction of writing and ferocious style needed a more suitable name, and in late 2005 the band changed their name to THIRTEENTH SIGN.To this day, Thirteenth Sign progress their style, pushing their collective musical talents forward and continuing to blur the borders of the extreme influences that give them their individual sound.Their first gig under the new name was supporting Vomitory and Desecration at Londons infamous Camden Underworld - the starting point of many an underground act.Their debut album "Oracles of Armageddon" was produced by Screamin Daemon frontman and The Rotted bass player, Rev. Trudgil and The Rotted's ex-manager Jo Carr and was released in November 2008 on Battlegod Productions. The album is being distributed by Plastic head in the UK, The End Records in the USA and Nuclear Blast in Europe.New guitarist Andy Berycz (ex-Centurions Ghost) joined in early 2008 and with 5 new tracks written the band are looking forward to re-entering the studio to work on a follow up to 'Oracles of Armageddon'.ORDER ORACLES OF ARMAGEDDON NOW
