International metal group Skull Pit, featuring Exumer frontman Mem Von Stein and Church Of Misery bassist Tatsu Mikami, issued their self-titled debut full-length studio album on November 16th, 2018 through Metal Blade Records.<\/p>\n

The outing has been made available for streaming in its entirety via YouTube and can be accessed below.<\/p>\n

Vocalist Mem Von Stein commented: \u201cThis album perfectly captures the entire spectrum of what we were passionate about as youths and now as adults: unfiltered, honest and straightforward heavy metal.\u201d<\/p>\n

Skull Pit<\/em> was recorded in New York and Japan during Exumer\u2019s and Church Of Misery\u2019s time off from playing live around the globe, and mixed in Tokyo by O-mi Kihara.<\/p>\n

Included is a cover rendition of \u2018All The Lessons\u2019. Written and recorded by Rose Tattoo, its original version was featured on 1981 outing Assault & Battery<\/em>. The rendition features former Madball guitarist Brian \u2018Mitts\u2019 Daniels, who produced Mem Von Stein\u2019s vocal tracks in New York.<\/p>\n
