Eyehategod announce new album ‘A History of Nomadic Behavior’

EYEHATEGOD have released a brand new album!

Titled A History of Nomadic Behavior, the upcoming album from the iconic American sludge band is their first album in seven years and is scheduled to be released in March next year, via Century Media Records.

Speaking about the upcoming album, vocalist Mike IX Williams says, “we’re not a political band, but it was hard not to be affected by the news from the past year. During this recording, I thought a lot about how stupid humanity has become and how America is now completely divided with these people who don’t believe in science and blindly follow liars and nonsensical ideologies. Some of those feelings may have found their way into these songs, but it is mostly subliminal.”

A History of Nomadic Behavior follows a period that saw the New Orleans based band on the road for three years, preceded by Williams suffering liver failure and a transplant. “We toured our asses off for three years and that’s where A History of Nomadic Behavior basically comes from,” adds Williams before touching on his health challenge: “Death is a part of life, it’s a roll of the dice. Sometimes you take life as it comes, other times you fight to stay alive.” The album was produced by the band, Sanford Parker [YOB, VOIVOD] and James Whitten [THOU, HIGH ON FIRE], with mixing by Whitten. The band recorded at HighTower Recording and Hypercube Studios.

Alongside the announcement of the new album, the band have released the first song from the upcoming album; High Risk Trigger.
