Despised Icon - Announce New Album, Reveal Details


Canadian deathcore smashers Despised Icon are back to reveal their sixth full length album, titled Purgatory, which will be released on November 15th via Nuclear Blast Records. Six-piece from Canada also present music video for the first single and title track. Video clip was directed and produced by Jessy Fuchs.

Purgatory was produced by Yannick St-Amand, Eric Jarrin and Alex Erian. The music was recorded by Despised Icon's former guitar player, now current front of house engineer Yannick St-Amand while the vocals were recorded by close friend Antoine Lussier of Ion Dissonance. Mixing and mastering were completed by Cryptopsy's very own Christian Donaldson at The Grid in Montréal, QC.




The group commented: "At long last, we finally have new music for you! This is the most time we've ever spent writing and recording. We could go on and on about how this is our heaviest, fastest and most diverse album yet but we'll let the music do the talking. We've been a band for 17 years and are thankful to have such a loyal and supportive fan base. Prepare for Purgatory."
