Three years in the making, at last comes the stunning new Band Of Pain album. It features contributions from Steven Stapleton and Andrew Liles from Nurse With Wound and Jean-Hervé Peron and Jeanne-Marie Varain from Faust, as well as the usual suspects. It is packaged in a beautiful gloss laminated 12" gatefold sleeve with artwork that is unique to this release by Steven Stapleton (Babs Santini). It also features calligraphy by the wonderful Geoff Cox, who is known for his previous work for Current 93/NWW and, of course, the book "England's Hidden Reverse". The format is a double-CD set -- one CD for side one and one for side two. This keeps with the intended LP concept, but has CD fidelity for the best audio quality for this type of music. In the sleeve's rear opening is a vinyl LP. It's an unplayable 12" record with exclusive Steven Stapleton etchings. It truly has to be seen to be believed, possibly as much of an art object as it is a record. Gatefold sleeve.

Originally released in 2000. The soundtrack was written by Steve Pittis' Band Of Pain, creating a very dark, brooding atmosphere to compliment Nigel Wingrove's film. Originally including a 16-page booklet depicting explicit scenes from the film, pressure from the distributors forced the artwork into a revised 4-page version. Sacred Flesh is dark journey into realms of mental anguish and repression; a very black ambient soundtrack. This is Band Of Pain working in the medium to which it's most suited. An incredible album with massive demand from both film and music buffs.
