February 17, 2011, 13 years ago
French label Season Of Mist has just confirmed to BraveWords.com that the as-yet-untitled new album from Florida extreme metallers MORBID ANGEL will be released on June 2nd and is being described as "something between the bizarre and their classic sounds."
Morbid Angel's ninth album will undoubtedly begin with the letter I, keeping with the band's tradition of naming their albums in alphabetical order beginning with 1989's Altars Of Madness through 2003's Heretic. The album was recorded at Mana Recording Studios in St. Petersburg, Florida with engineer Erik Rutan (HATE ETERNAL; former Morbid Angel guitarist).
Morbid Angel’s 2011 spring and summer tour have been confirmed. Following the recently announced headlining gig at the Scion Festival in Pomona, California next month, the band will head to Japan, Singapore and Australia in May, as well as Sweden, Denmark, France, Germany, Portugal, Czech republic and England this summer.
