Lydda, Palestine. Year 303 in the Common Era. The Roman Emperor, emboldened by a will to restore the glory of old, has declared an edict to persecute and punish the encroaching Christian faith. A young Cappadocian tribune, a believer, refuses to comply and speaks out against the decree. For his defiance, this once-trusted soldier is brutally tortured, mutilated, and ultimately decapitated. His remains are interred at Lydda, the homeland of his mother, and a church built in his honour.
That Emperor, of course, was Diocletian. And through his martyrdom, the tribune became known to the world as Saint George.
Or so the story goes…
Mere days before DIOCLETIAN reach England, we have locked down and confirmed every venue. With thanks to the tireless efforts of Morbid Angle, London will now be hosted at the world-famous Cart & Horses. The full lineup remains, and tickets can be bought from morbidangle.bigcartel.com.
As warmup for this week of war, TRIVAX play Walpurgisnacht Festival in Berlin on Friday. With barely time to recover, they will be eager to get on the road and deliver their Eastern Death Magick to all.
