Vintage death metal masters GRAVE recently finished the recording for their brand new 5-track EP, Morbid Ascent, which serves as an appendix to the band’s 2012 album, Endless Procession Of Souls.

This EP includes two brand new tracks, a cover version of SATYRICON's 'Possessed', a remix version of 'Epos' as well as the newly recorded version of 'Reality Of Life', a classic Grave demo track from the Sexual Mutilation demo (1989). The EP opening track 'Venial Sin' features some shrieking guest solos by AUTOPSY’s Eric Cutler.

The eldritch cover artwork as well as additional interior artwork and the entire layout has been done again by Costin Chioreanu, who has already done covers for the three previous Grave albums as well as artwork for numerous other artists and bands (DARKTHRONE, DESTROYER 666, ULVER, etc.).

Morbid Ascent will be released as a limited 12" MLP (with full color, 180g vinyl and full color inlay) as well as digital download. Both formats will be offered for a fan-friendly price. The release date of the digital download is set to August 26th. The vinyl version will already be available at various sales stands on Party.San and Summer Breeze Open Air. Keep your eyes open.
