Diabolical death/black metal giants, Belphegor, will unleash their new album, Totenritual, worldwide via Nuclear Blast on September 15th. Today, the band have revealed a lyric video for the album’s lead track, “Baphomet”.

Helmuth comments: "This LP is the most brutally heavy offering we have consecrated thus far, everything pushes the limits of anything we have done before. It is highly appreciated when people enjoy our legacy, the possession, the magick surrounding and within Belphegor! “Baphomet” is a brutal neck-breaking hellride. Push play and crank your speakers to the max!"

Totenritual was recorded at Stage One Studios, Germany and Studio Mischmaschine, Austria. Over three years have passed since the Conjuring The Dead album was released. The new album was mixed by Jason Suecof, with mastering done by Mark Lewis at Audiohammer Studios, Florida.

The album artwork was created by Greek artist Seth Siro Anton, who also painted the cover artwork for Pestokalypse VI in 2006 and Conjuring The Dead in 2014.
