Relapse Records has announced the long awaited reissue of New York death metal legends SUFFOCATION’s debut release Human Waste on vinyl for the first time in over ten years!

The EP, originally released in 1991 as the first CD ever released on Relapse Records, is now available once again on wax. This edition marks the first time the band’s much sought after Involuntary Slaughter and Reincremation demos are available on vinyl.

The limited edition repress will be available in stores on June 25th and is currently available for pre-order via Relapse at this location. Pressing information is as follows:

First Press:
