Vincent Leonard Price Jr. (May 27, 1911 – October 25, 1993) was an American actor,
known for his performances in horror films.
He identified with gothic horror and crazed villainy through a series of leading film roles in the 1960s 
that were based on Edgar Allan Poe poems and short stories such as The Raven, The Fall of the House of Usher,
The Pit and the Pendulum, and The Masque of the Red Death all of them directed by Roger Corman.
Thanks to the actor's wide exposure in those movies and others like them, his voice became immediately associated 
with the horror genre, opening the door for Price to contribute to a number of different recordings.
During the early 1970s, Price hosted and starred in BBC Radio's horror and mystery series The Price Of Fear.
He also recorded dramatic readings of Edgar Allan Poe's short stories and poems,
which were collected together with readings by Basil Rathbone.
Around 1975 he greatly reduced his film work, as horror itself suffered a slump, and increased his narrative and voice work.
His spooky laughter alone was enough to conjure all sorts of macabre thoughts and associations,
and his elegant diction only enhanced the effect.
A sampling of Price's contributions includes an appearance on Alice Cooper's "Welcome To My Nightmare" in 1975
and a guest spot on Michael Jackson's "Thriller" in 1982.
Price's album,  "Witchcraft - Magic: An Adventure In Demonology", was released by Capitol Records.

Warlust – The Final War (MCD 1999)

Country: Netherlands

Tracklist

1. Haat 06:30
2. Diabolical Hordes 03:49
3. Zyklon 05:59
4. Murder of God 06:04
5. The Final War 03:40

Warlust was raised by Furor, Sick and Nocturnasz in the spring of 1998.
They all played in various bands before, so they all had some musical experience.
In the beginning Warlust also had a vocalist and a bass player,

but a couple of months later they left because of musical discord with the rest of the band.
The music Warlust plays can be described as fast and aggressive black metal,

with minor thrash and death metal influences, combined with slower but still powerful parts.
In January and February 1999 the band recorded their debut mini-CD "The Final War".

The MCD contains 5 songs of blackened war metal, and was released in July 1999 on Happy Holochrist Records.

The vocals on this recording are done by Lord Charagnanna (Charagnanna, Unshrouded Bitterness, ex-Sabbatical Goat),

who later became a permanent member in Warlust.
Shortly after Troll, another ex-member of Sabbatical Goat, joined Warlust on bass.
With this line-up Warlust recorded in 2001 their only full length album "Trench War" that was released in 2003.
Soon after the recording of "Trench War" the band split up 

while Nocturnasz and Furor continued with their side project band Pestis.
