This band is long dead to my knowledge. "Godslayer Xul" was recorded back in 1995, and as far as I know this "re-issue" is the only official release of this CD (it was originally supposed to be released on the now defunct Lethal Records). Although this CD is still quite good, it isn't as equally strong as the other FUNERAL WINDS material. The production is too damn "clean", and I prefer Gorgoroth's (now in LIAR OF GOLGOTHA) vocals over M Xul's (although his vocals do sound grim!). Most of the "newer" tracks are faster than the others (and shorter), but still retain the FUNERAL WINDS feel. I think the opening track "For The Glory Of Xul" may very well be the band's greatest song!!
