GOATWHORE Release Seventh Studio Album ‘Vengeful Ascension’
June 23rd, 2017

New Orleans, Louisiana-based extreme metal band Goatwhore issued seventh full-length studio album Vengeful Ascension on June 23rd, 2017 through Metal Blade Records.

The outing was recorded at Earth Analog in Tolono, Illinois with longtime soundman and comrade Jarrett Pritchard, breaking a four-album tradition of working with Erik Rutan.

“Working with Rutan was awesome,” said frontman Ben Falgoust. “We did some great records with him. But you come to a point where you’re like, ‘All right. Let’s try something new.’ It was part of trying to remove ourselves from a comfort zone and a risk thing we needed to take. Plus, we really wanted to hit the essence of where we are live and what better way to harness that than by having our live sound guy involved. Jarrett is knowledgeable with the studio stuff. He also knows how we sound coming out of a PA and we really wanted to get closer to that.”

Vengeful Ascension was mixed by Chris Common and mastered by Maor Applebaum.

The track listing is as follows:

01. ‘Forsaken’
02. ‘Under The Flesh, Into The Soul’
03. ‘Vengeful Ascension’
04. ‘Chaos Arcane’
05. ‘Where The Sun Is Silent’
06. ‘Drowned In Grim Rebirth’
07. ‘Abandon Indoctrination’
08. ‘Mankind Will Have No Mercy’
09. ‘Decayed Omen Reborn’
10. ‘Those Who Denied God’s Will’

Goatwhore’s line-up is as follows:

Louis B. Falgoust II (vocals)
Sammy Duet (guitar and vocals)
Zack Simmons (drums)
James Harvey (studio bass)
Robert “TA” Coleman (live bass)

An official lyric video was created for the song ‘Chaos Arcane’, which can be viewed below.

Sixth studio record Constricting Rage Of The Merciless was released in July 2014.
