With a wealth of touring on the horizon, New York death metal vets Immolation have shared the details for their twelfth studio album, “Descent“. They didn’t stop there however, having also just pushed out a music video for the record’s first single “Adversary“. The band’s own guitarist Bob Vigna took the reigns on directing the shoot for that clip, which you can watch below.
Nuclear Blast have an April 10th release date slated for “Descent“. Speaking collectively about this new 10-song collection, Immolation offered:
“We are really excited to release ‘Descent’ this year. The vibe and feel of this new one is almost addictive. We couldn’t be happier with how it came out and we can’t wait for everyone to hear it! This album takes what we’ve done on the last couple of records and truly brings it to a new level. The material stays true to our roots, but also goes into some new territory at times, being somewhat ambitious, but taking nods from even our earliest moments.
We always strive to create interesting songs, and I believe we have achieved that on every track here. It’s truly one of the best records we’ve done, with an amazing production, atmosphere and flow. We look forward to playing it all live for you soon! Enjoy the ‘Descent‘!”
Recording sessions for it took place across separate session with Justin Passamonte and Noach Buchanan. Zack Ohren (Machine Head, Fallujah) mixed and mastered it, while Eliran Kantor was enlisted for the album’s cover art.
