Henri Sattler comments: « ‘Illuminati’
is out today and we can’t wait for everyone to check out the album! We
are also launching a third video today for ‘Book of Lies’, which
connects the storyline of the two previous singles/videos and hopefully
is a track that will spark your interest in listening
to the full album! Also, we are soon to start a heavy touring campaign:
First it’s three special album release shows this weekend, then next
week we start a first European tour with
Obscura, and afterwards it’s festival time, but also
another European tour of which we will reveal details soon. We look
forward to seeing you at one of the upcoming shows this year! »

Illuminati!
« Henri Sattler and his crew now return in
top shape and deliver an album that belongs to the highlights of their discography!«
– Deaf Forever
« But above all, it’s the dominating and extravagantly
fabulous melodies, which make the eleventh full-length by God Dethroned a very, very special one.«
– Legacy « …a must-buy for every black/death fan. » – Metal Wani « The result is that ‘Illuminati‘ is a damned fun and damned fine record, filled with hooks and hate, and certainly a welcome addition to my […] list of melodic blackened death metal knockouts. » – Last Rites To celebrate the release of Illuminati, God Dethroned will be hosting three release shows this weekend in Germany and the Netherlands.
