Chicagoland's melodic death metallers, Starkill, have announced an October 14th North American (October 20th EU) release date for their sophomore album Virus Of The Mind. Once again enlisting the services of engineer and producer Chuck Macak (Oceano, letlive.), Virus Of The Mind will contain ten tracks of epic death metal filled with over-the-top shredding solos from up and comer shredder Parker Jameson. The album also introduces the use of Jameson's clean vocals, and an overall darker style not heard before on Starkill's debut, Fires Of Life.
