Misery Index announce new album ‘Rituals of Power’

MISERY INDEX have announced a new album!

The new album, titled Rituals of Power, is the upcoming album from the American death metallers and is scheduled to be released in March next year.

The album’s artwork was created by Raphael Gabrio and was mixed and mastered by Will Putney. Speaking about the upcoming record, the band says, Rituals of Power is a disavowal and warning against the consequences of our so-called ‘post-truth’ age. Each of the nine songs revolves loosely around this theme, yet each track also stands very much on its own. As an album however, they are all brought to life as one ‘reanimated’ monster; it’s roughly 35 minutes of unhinged, yet cohesive, riff-driven aural ballistics. We were pissed off and on fire during both the writing and recording, and we think it shows in spades. We set out to write the best album we could, based on what we would want to hear first as fans of this music, and we could not be happier.”
