HIEROPHANT stream new track, "Crematorium"


Hierophant Italian deathpunk band HIEROPHANT are streaming a third new track off their forthcoming new album, 'Mass Grave'. An explosive grindcore-infused death metal track titled "Crematorium" is streaming below:



'Mass Grave' is HIEROPHANT's fourth album and first with Season of Mist, and will be released worldwide on November 4. Pre-orders for 'Mass Grave' are available at the Season of Mist E-Shop.

Regarding the new track, the band comments, "Sonically and lyrically “Crematorium” deals with the idea that the world we live in and life as we know it is just a temporary phase before incineration. It’s just an unstoppable march towards the end, where everything is destined to disappear and turn into nothing again."

'Mass Grave' was recorded at The Pit Recording Studio (NAILS, TWITCHING TONGUES, DISGRACE, XIBALBA, ACxDC, and more) with Taylor Young of NAILS. 'Mass Grave' features artwork from Paolo Girardi ( POWER TRIP, BLACK BREATH, INQUISITION).

Regarding the new album, Young adds,

"I was lucky enough to mix Hierophant's previous album, "Peste", and I couldn't be more excited to be able to take it to the next level and help them create a monstrous album. This will be one of the heaviest and most aggressive productions I have created thus far."

The artwork and track list for 'Mass Grave' can be seen below:

Established in 2010 in Italy, HIEROPHANT (feat. former members of THE SECRET) have since cut their teeth in the underground grind and hardcore scenes through the release of three well-received full lengths and several tours across Europe. The band's aggressive take on extreme hardcore and metal amalgamates massive sonic impact with tinges of sludge, death and black metal, and a visceral punk attitude.
