Today marks the release of Torture World, the seething new EP from Boston’s Great American Ghost, out now on MNRK Heavy.

Produced by Will Putney (A Day To Remember, Knocked Loose, The Amity Affliction), who handled the band’s 2019’s Power Through Terror full-length, with Torture World, Great American Ghost directs old-school hardcore wrath at hypocrisy, apathy, and self-loathing, delivered in a dark cloud of relentlessly bludgeoning riffs.

In celebration of the release, today the band unveils a visualizer for the track “Womb”. The song captures the band at their heaviest yet, tearing through instrumental technicality and breathing new life into the deathcore scene. Comments vocalist Ethan Harrison, “If you don’t bang your head to ‘Womb’, you must actually be dead.”

Torture World is available on CD, LP, cassette, and digital formats. Find ordering options at this location.
