Christian death metallers Extol is releasing their new documentary on DVD titled Extol: Of Light And Shade on April 7, 2015 via Indie Recordings. Watch a trailer here.

The band looks back at their career including Norwegian Grammy nominations, several US tours, top CD sales and national recognition in press and the music scene, while being split in paradox between two worlds – Christianity and death metal.

After six releases, 2007 was the start of a five year break due to their vocalist Peter Espevoll’s tinnitus and anxiety. The documentary gives an insight on tinnitus and anxiety where the singer speaks openly about some of the challenges he experienced in 2007 and the years that followed. Questions about faith and freedom of speech set in a musical perspective are also important topics. The film does also illustrate the band’s position in the Norwegian music scene and their international position. Eyvind Skeie, Hank von Helvete, now deceased Pater Arnfinn Haram and the charismatic American rock pastor Bob Beeman are some of the characters we meet in Extol: Of Light And Shade.
