Deicide- Once Upon A Cross LP (Red White & Blue 'Autobots' Vinyl) (2025 Record Store Day Release)

This is a release for RECORD STORE DAY. All RSD titles will be available at the AYP retail shop in Lancaster PA on Saturday April 12th (We are opening at 9:00 that day).  Anything not sold in store that day will be put up for sale through the website.

From the cover art to the lyrics, death metal legends Deicide didn't give an inch when it came to their uncompromising anti-church stance on their 1995 release Once Upon the Cross. In fact, the album included samples from the film The Last Temptation of Christ, which was itself accused of blasphemy. But the band was hardly standing still, as the gobsmacking guitar pyrotechnics of Eric and Brian Hoffman and furious fusillades of bassist/vocalist Glen Benton and drummer Steve Asheim became ever more awe-inspiring and, dare we say it, miraculous. For it's 30th anniversary, we are giving Once Upon the Cross it's American vinyl debut with a fresh remastering for vinyl by Mike Milchner at Sonic Vision Mastering and a blue, red, and gray "autobots" pressing complete with printed inner sleeve featuring lyrics. Limited to 2500 copies, exclusive to Record Store
