INCANTATION VENGEFULLY VANQUISH SH*TTY DEATH METAL BANDS

Because of New York Comic Con, Vince and I basically lived at Javits Center for a large chunk of last week and this entire weekend. So it sure was swell of reader Josh Miller to send me an e-mail on Sunday afternoon to ask this hyper-articulate question:

“why the fuck have you not had an article about fucking Incantation putting out a new album??????????????????????????????????????”

So I’d like to apologize to Josh for not doing exactly what he wants when he wants. It will never happen again!

ANYWAY, yes! The legendary Incantation have a new album called Vanquish in Vengeance coming out next month; as if you hadn’t already noticed, that the cover art at the top of this post. I’m gonna go out on a limb and guess that the book all the very happy people in the image are reaching for is a Bible. It’s so great to see a death metal FINALLY going after organized religion after so many decades of praise for Christianity, isn’t it?

In all seriousness, I expect good things from this album. It comes out November 27 on Listenable. While you eagerly await its arrival, enjoy this alternate version of the cover:
