ASINHELL have announced their debut album!

Titled Impii Hora, the upcoming album from the band (spearheaded by VOLBEAT vocalist/guitarist Michael Poulsen) is their debut full-length album and is scheduled to be released in September this year, via Metal Blade Records.

While Poulsen sings in VOLBEAT and sang for DOMINUS, he didn’t want to front his new project. So, in March last year, he called his old friend, ex-MORGOTH singer Marc Grewe [INSIDIOUS DISEASE] and invited him to join the party. “I had known Michael quite a long time and he always mentioned that we should do a death metal project one day, but I never took him too seriously because he was so busy with VOLBEAT,” Grewe says. “Then he called for real and said, ‘Yeah, I want to do it now. Are you up for it?’ Immediately, I was ‘Yes, of course!'”

Alongside the announcement of the debut album, the band have released a new song from the upcoming album; Fall Of The Loyal Warrior.

Speaking about the new song, Poulsen says, “we’re very excited to share the first taste of ASINHELL with Fall Of The Loyal Warrior. The song is kind of a tribute to bands I love, like BOLT THROWER, ENTOMBED, AUTOPSY, GRAVE, and DARKTHRONE. They’re the reason why we can do this in the first place, and we’re proud to wear our influences on our sleeve. The album was inspired by late 80s and early 90s old school death metal, and one of our brightest points of inspiration was the mighty DEATH, fronted by the legendary Chuck Schuldiner. There’s a lot of DEATH in there. Schuldiner is one of my favorite death metal vocalists, the other being our vocalist Marc [Grewe]. So to me, this song is the combination of two of my favorites. ‘Let the metal flow,’ as Chuck would have said!”
