Decibel Books has announced the publication of Into Everlasting Fire: The Official History of Immolation, a 400-page history of the Death Metal band. The book has an expected ship date in November 2024.

Propelled by guitarist Robert Vigna and bassist/vocalist Ross Dolan, Immolation survived music industry pitfalls like dubious record contacts, sketchy agents, and the mid-’90s commercial collapse of the subgenre they helped define.

For an exclusive preview of Into Everlasting Fire, fans can read the first excerpt online, which takes readers back to early ’90s as the Death Metal scene was rising and Immolation were about to sign to their first record deal with Roadrunner subsidiary R/C Records.

Ahead of this release, Immolation fans can witness a special “First 20 Years” set at Decibel’s 20th Anniversary Show on August 31st at Brooklyn Bowl Philadelphia, PA.

Into Everlasting Fire: The Official History of Immolation provides eyewitness accounts from ex-members, label owners, producers and fellow artists who were part of the band’s climb. Penned by longtime extreme Metal journalist Kevin Stewart-Panko (Do You Have Anything to Declare?), featuring a foreword by Deadguy guitarist Keith Huckins, and with new art from legendary Immolation cover artist Andreas Marschall, Into Everlasting Fire is Immolation’s fully authorized history.

The band says:

We are very excited and extremely proud to announce ‘Into Everlasting Fire’. It provides a unique glimpse into our world throughout the years as well as a glimpse into our scene from its earlier beginnings right up until the present. Kevin Stewart-Panko did an amazing job in assimilating almost 40 years of stories and memories into a book that will finally give our fans a unique look into Immolation’s long and rich history rooted in the beginnings of the death metal scene.
