European diabolical death/ black metal commando, Belphegor, have successfully finished the drum tracking and bass recordings for their new sinister masterpiece.

This 11th full-length album is to be entitled Totenritual, and it will present nine new tracks laced with obscure magick full of furious brutality on September 15th worldwide, via Nuclear Blast.

Frontman Helmuth states: "It is the most brutally heavy offering we have consecrated thus far. The drums are precise and very technical with loads of breaks, fills and tempo changes. The bass is like a panzer tank. Also the rhythm guitars are complete; utterly aggressive and obscure. I'm really proud of all we have tracked so far and created for the new audial hellspawn."

In this trailer from the studio you can watch Bloodhammer torturing his kit:
