Ludichrist classic albums "Immaculate Deception" and "Powertrip" available now on iTunes


Late last month, N.Y. hardcore punk act, Ludichrist, and Dead City Records teamed up to re-release the band's two classic albums, Immaculate Deception (1986) and Powertrip (1988), as a double CD through the Dead City webstore at:http://www.deadcitymerch.com. Now, the two albums are available for digital download through iTunes here: https://itunes.apple.com/us/album/powertrip/id884935780 (Powertrip) and here: https://itunes.apple.com/us/album/immaculate-deception/id884731169 (Immaculate Deception). Featuring all songs from these two rare, out-of-print hardcore/metal albums, the package includes full color booklet containing all lyrics, photos, flyers and more.

Ludichrist celebrated the release with a performance at the annual Black N' Blue Bowl 2014 in Brooklyn, N.Y. 

Vocalist, Tommy Christ, stated, "Thirty years after we first started, our two albums have been re-released and we got to celebrate the event with a 1,000 plus friends, old and new, at the Black N' Blue Bowl! Those albums have been hard find for a long time, and it's pretty cool that they're back. I may even buy a copy."

A teaser video for the Immaculate Deception / Powertrip release can be seen on YouTube at:http://youtu.be/s5jvzfDgJxY.

Hailing from New York in the early 1980's, Ludichrist was one of the preeminent bands bridging the gap between metal and hardcore. Behind two full-length albums and global touring, it didn't take long for the band to cement itself as a legendary act in the most important decade ever for hardcore/metal music.

Stay tuned for more information on Ludichrist and the Immaculate Deception / Powertripdouble CD, out now on Dead City Records.
