ENDSEEKER have announced a new album!

Titled Mount Carcass, the upcoming album from the German death metal band is the follow-up to 2019’s The Harvest and is scheduled to be released in April this year, via Metal Blade Records.

Like its predecessors, the upcoming album was recorded, produced, mixed, and mastered by Eike Freese at Chameleon Studios in Hamburg, Germany. Going into the record, the band knew they wanted something rawer and more organic than The Harvest, and while the COVID-19 pandemic was causing global havoc, the band embraced the time they would have otherwise spent touring, using it to rehearse and discuss what they wanted the record to be.

Speaking about the upcoming album, the band says, “we took all the frustration and despair over the cancelled shows and the whole misery COVID-19 has brought upon us all and forged it into a bunch of straight forward, powerful songs that accompanied us through 2020 and will now be shared with the rest of the world. Mount Carcass is definitely our most focused – in a way, even the angriest – record so far, and Unholy Rites, with its uplifting zombie-vibe, is the perfect opener for this new chapter in the history of ENDSEEKER.”

Alongside the announcement of the new album, the band have released a new music video for the first song from the upcoming album; Unholy Rites.

Speaking about the livestreamed show, the band adds, “we’d of course love to start this new chapter with YOU, our fans. Sadly, there won’t be a sweaty sold-out release show like last time, however, we’re back at the Knust in Hamburg on April 18th for a special livestream event (more details to be revealed soon). Come and celebrate with us online until we see each other in the pit again!”
