Vigorous and Liberating Death

Vigorous and Liberating Death is the twelfth full-length studio album from Finnish black metal band Impaled Nazarene.

It was released, as are all of their albums thus far, on Osmose Productions on 14 April 2014.

The album is available on CD, gatefold LP and digital download.

In an interview on Finnish radio channel Yle X3M, the band stated that the first demos for the album were done on late 2012 but the actual recording was delayed due to issues with their then-upcoming live DVD and its promotion tour.

In the same interview, Luttinen told that the album's title and lyrical themes handle death from various viewpoints: the death of Finland's and European Union's economies, the death of freedom of speech among others.
