So, the release of the Wraith Insurrection: Live @ Sound Exchange DVD is upon us. I must say, Depravis and I are very pleased with the artwork, once again realized by Lord Atrum, who also gave us the artwork for the In Shadows Unseen rehearsal demo.

For those who may be interested in his work, you can visit his page at:
