Immortal Bird will be teasing tracks from their forthcoming new dose of deviance entitled, Empress/Abscess.

Empress/Abscess includes a guest appearance by John Hoffman of Weekend Nachos and finds former drummer/vocalist, Rae Amitay (Thrawsunblat), trading in her drum stool for a full-time position at the mic with longtime live drummer, Garry Naples (Novembers Doom) taking her place.
