GOATWHORE’s New Song "Vengeful Ascension" Is Just Sinister, New Album In June – Metal Injection.net

Three years after Goatwhore's fantasticConstricting Rage of the Merciless comes Vengeful Ascension, due out June 23. Vengeful Ascension seems like it's going to be a slower and darker effort from the New Orleans-based quartet, and you can get a taste of that churning blackened madness courtesy of thetitle track to the album below.

Vengeful Ascension was recorded reel-to-reel at Earth Analog in Tolono, Illinois withJarrett Pritchard (1349, Gruesome), wasmixed by Chris Common (Tribulation, Pelican), and was mastered by Maor Applebaum (Faith No More, Halford, Today Is The Day).

This is the first time in four album that Goatwhore has not recorded with Erik Rutan, and the band just wanted to change it up, says vocalist Ben Falgoust.

"Working with Rutan was awesome. We did some great records with him. But you come to a point where youre like, 'All right. Lets try something new.' It was part of trying to remove ourselves from a comfort zone and a risk thing we needed to take. Plus, we really wanted to hit the essence of where we are live and what better way to harness that than by having our live sound guy involved. Jarrett is knowledgeable with the studio stuff. He also knows how we sound coming out of a PA and we really wanted to get closer to that."
