Northern California extreme heavy metal act, ALL SHALL PERISH, has issued a new video blog, which can be seen below, focusing on the creation of the forthcoming album, This Is Where It Ends. Watch as the band provide commentary on the meaning behind the album’s title, the writing process, lyrical content and more.

“(This Is Where It Ends) is honestly our best material that we’ve ever put out,” states bassist, Mike Tiner.

“We truly put our heart and souls into it, and I feel like everybody was on the same page this time around,” adds vocalist, Eddie Hermida.

This Is Where It Ends, All Shall Perish’s fourth studio album, is slated to hit stores July 26th in North America and July 29th in Europe on Nuclear Blast Records.

It can be pre-ordered now through the Nuclear Blast webstore,

on iTunes, through Newbury Comics with an autographed booklet, or via the Amazon links below.

The follow-up to the 2008 release, Awaken The Dreamers, This Is Where It Ends was recorded and mixed once again at Castle Ultimate Studios in Oakland with producer Zack Ohren (DECREPIT BIRTH, SUFFOCATION).

Album art was brought to life by Brent Elliott White (DEATH ANGEL, JOF FOR A COWBOY, WHITECHAPEL).

Two brand new tracks from This Is Where It Ends, 'Divine Illusion' and 'Procession Of Ashes', can be streamed online at this location.

In live news, All Shall Perish is currently on the road as part of the 2011 Rockstar Energy Drink Mayhem Festival, which kicked off last weekend in San Bernardino, CA. The band takes the stage each day from 3:05pm - 3:35pm. Fans are also encouraged to drop by the All Shall Perish merch tent at around 4:30pm at each Mayhem stop where the band will be signing autographs.
