French heavy/doom metal band Ecclesia premiere new single and lyric video »Sanctus«

French heavy/doom metal band Ecclesia is back with a brand new single and lyric video »Sanctus«.

Ecclesia comments: “We are proud to introduce you to the next chapter of our holy witch hunt!

The Holy Inquisition is very delighted and proud to announce that our new digital single »Sanctus« is released on all digital platforms on Sunday 5th April.

This will mark Dom Gregorius Serenus’ debut as a vocalist for Ecclesia and the beginning of a new era, for which we give thanks to God and His avenging arm.”

In 2016 anno Domini, the Vatican decided it was about time to relaunch the Holy Inquisition and appointed the members of Ecclesia to fight the heretic and to put up stakes wherever it may be necessary.

Thus Ecclesia released their glorious first demo »Witchfinding Metal Of Doom« in June 2017, offering a compromise between heavy metal, doom riffs and monastic chants.

2018 anno Domini was the year of the band’s very first live appearance before entering the studio a few months later in order to record their first album.

Ecclesia’s first full-length effort »De Ecclesiæ Universalis« came out in November 2020 on Italian label Aural Music. However, due to the corona pestis pandemic going on at the time, the boys in red had to wait until 2022 to hit the stage again.

In 2024 anno Domini, Ecclesia unleashed onto the world their second album »Ecclesia Militans« and are preparing their coming to a church near you.

Deus Vult!

Ecclesia are:
Dom Gregorius Serenus – Vocals
The Witchfinder General – Guitar
Julius Accusator – Guitar
Frater Ignis Sacer – Bass
Pater Hexenhammer – Drums
Pater Walkelinus – Organ
