Megatherium announce new album ‘GOD’

MEGATHERIUM have announced a new album!

Titled GOD, the upcoming album from the Italian doom metallers is their sophomore effort and is scheduled to be released in April this year, via Argonauta Records.

The upcoming album follows the band’s 2016 debut record, Superbeast, and it offers a wide open arena full of blistering riffage and rhythms, outstanding vocals, and an apocalyptic sound supported by the clever use of keyboards. This is a dark blend of sludge and doom, crammed full of powerful raw yet clean vocals, scorching low-tuned guitar riffs, bone crushing bass and grooves.

Alongside the announcement of the new album, the band have released the first song from the upcoming album; titled The Eye. Speaking about the new song and upcoming album, the band says, “we are proud to announce our first single The Eye, from the upcoming album GOD. The superbeast of our previous full-length finally evolved into an other-worldly and reckless divinity, spreading its many eyes over the world with a pure blend of outraging riffage, dark tones and layered atmospheres. It is definitively our blackest and most complex work whatsoever. GOD – five songs and three interludes for a massive 50+ minutes of heavy darkness – will see the light on vinyl and digital by April 10th.”
