Mayhem - New Album Details Unveiled
Black metal legends Mayhem have announced that they will release their highly anticipated sixth studio album, entitled Daemon, on October 25th via Century Media Records. The pre-order for all formats will start on August 30th and detailed info on all different formats will be made available soon.
The band commented: "Daemon isn't a direct follow-up to Esoteric Warfare. Like all Mayhem albums of their time, Daemon is unto itself. The wolf solitary and singular. Indeed, Daemon also isn't a new chapter in our storied career. Rather, it's a new tome, authoritative yet wild in character. Composed and decomposed with the same lineup - Necrobutcher (bass), Hellhammer (drums), Attila (vocals), Teloch (guitars), and Ghul (guitars) - that handled Esoteric Warfare and performed De Mysteriis Dom Sathanas in its entirety over the last few years, Daemon isn't a retrofit of classic songs like 'Freezing Moon', 'Pagan Fears', or 'Buried By Time and Dust' either. That's what the live album, De Mysteriis Dom Sathanas Alive (2016), was for. Daemon is change, an opportunity for the maw of hell to open wider."

Excitement is such a small word sometimes. The cover art is stunning and the statement of the band is very real; every Mayhem album is its own beast. Thank you Joe for the tip (again).

Really dig that art, and the guy's other stuff is sick too. The album will be a highlight for sure.

They may say the album isn't retrofit, but that is quite a retro-looking artwork.

It's refreshing to see a true representation of the male body being depicted in the mainstream music scene.

No Mayhem album sounds like another Mayhem album. I'm excited to hear what they come up with this time.
