VLTIMAS will be issuing their new studio album “Epic” on March 15th through Season Of Mist. That blackened death metal supergroup, which features ex-Morbid Angel vocalist/bassist David Vincent, Cryptopsy drummer Flo Mounier, and ex-Mayhem guitarist Rune “Blasphemer” Eriksen, among their numbers, have just shared a first single from it: “Miserere“. You can find a music video for it below.
Speaking of that, the band collectively stated: “The world throws us all trials and tribulations constantly. We use this angst as a weapon in our art to score the apocalypse.” Digging in a bit further on the Jaime Gomez Arellano (Paradise Lost, Ghost) produced effort, Eriksen offered, “[‘EPIC‘ is] old meets contemporary, a symbiosis of all the great things we love about extreme metal. All combined into one album.”
Vincent added, “I want to be as emotional and honest [with VLTIMAS.] I want to tell stories; I want to have the themes that appeal to me; I want to have some messaging that someone can take away, in this case, strength. ‘EPIC‘ is strength.”
Pre-orders are available now via season-of-mist.com.
