VOODOO GODS Feat. GEORGE "CORPSEGRINDER" FISHER And VICTOR SMOLSKI Release "The Ritual Of Thorn" Digital Single; Audio Streaming

When death metal icons like George "Corpsegrinder" Fisher, guitar virtuoso Viktor Smolski, bass titan Jean Baudin and guitar god Jacek Hiro join together to form a death metal band, it reads like the membership list of the Metal Hall of Fame. This is the case with Voodoo Gods and therefore this band can be called a death metal supergroup without exaggeration.

The second studio album. The Divinity Of Blood, from this all-star band (which attaches great importance not to be called a side project) will be released on May 15 via Reaper Entertainment. Today, the band presents the first digital single, "The Ritual Of Thorn". The song is available on all major streaming plaforms now.

The official music video will be released soon, but you can hear the track now.

The band states: "This is our first single from 'The Divinity Of Blood' album called 'The Ritual Of Thorn' ; the song is about Damien Thorn and the Parousia; his arrival to earth and the human downfall."

The album was produced by King Diamond's Andy La Rocque, who also took care of the mixing and mastering of the record. The result is a huge and powerful death/thrash metal album which combines influences from voodooism, rituals and anti-Christian forces.

Victor Smolski states: "I can't wait to see the reactions, The Divinity Of Blood will have few surprises guitar-wise and some solos, never heard before in congregation with death metal."

Mastermind Alex Voodoo adds: "I think the Divinity Of Blood will have a weird and ineffable impact; there are musical and ritual alliances within our realm, stuff to trigger enthusiasm as well as creeps."

Andy LaRocque comments: "I had a great time working with this great musicians; great songs, great guys. I hope to work with them again soon!!!"
