The official European release date for the record is May 17th.

As previously reported, the new song 'Coward' is now streaming online at this location.

Annihilator guitarist and mainman Jeff Waters comments: "This one turned out pretty fast and thrashy but has a pretty cool slow-down in the middle of the tune. Dave (Padden) wrote the lyrics on this and is pretty pissed off at someone; I think, a former friend of the family. Nothing really technical and difficult, other than some limb-cramping guitar picking and non-stop drum rippage, but I would describe it as simply a headbanging, no-B.S. metal scorcher. I am looking forward to posting some more songs from the new CD soon, as each song seems to really be different. Cheers metal friends!"

Annihilator is the band's thirteenth studio album and is sure to please both old and new fans with its shredding guitars and catchy hooks.
