Bloodtruth announce new album ‘Martyrium’

BLOODTRUTH have announced a new album!

The upcoming record, titled Martyrium, is the sophomore effort from the Italian death metallers and is scheduled to be released in September this year.

The upcoming album was mixed and mastered by Italian producer Stefano Morabito at 16th Cellar Studios (FLESHGOD APOCALYPSE, HOUR OF PENANCE) and features artwork created by Jose Sabogal (BEHEADED, INFERNO). Speaking about the upcoming album, the band says, “the main themes interlinking the wide range of subjects covered in Martyrium are human sacrifice, carnage and slaughter which the Christian Church carried out against all those found guilty of being “heretics”. In this album, historical and ethical relevance are both firmly bonded to the circumstances and facts mentioned in the lyrics.”

Guitarist and co-songwriter Stefano Rossi Ciucci adds,Martyrium is a concept album. We took a really long time to release it but we believe that’s a sign of more maturity and determination within the band. We always follow our feelings and try to express our state of mind through our music, and what we have in our hands now is the darkest and brutal BLOODTRUTH album ever!”
