Verheerer announce new album ‘Monolith’

VERHEERER have announced a new album!

Titled Monolith, the upcoming album from the German black metallers is their sophomore effort and is scheduled to be released in October this year.

A timeless dark piece of cold and hostile extreme metal; seven songs between black and death metal, seasoned with some heavy metal that will take you on a journey from the rotten roots in the heart of man to the cold, merciless dawn of extinction.

Speaking about the upcoming album, the band says, “as we started working on Monolith, the central idea was to create an album being VERHEERER stripped to it’s purest core, without any superfluous elements. The title track Monolith is perfectly matching that train of thought, while the title itself and our image of a monolith fit 100% to this scheme: a brutal, intimidating, humiliating piece of stone – raw, hostile and beautiful at the same time. Ironically, we reached the core of VERHEERER by involving our three new musicians LKS, KRZ and MYR directly into the songwriting process.”

Alongside the announcement of the new album, the band have released the first song from the album; the title track.
