OBITUARY to Release Inked in Blood October 28th on Relapse Records

Artwork and Track Listing Revealed

“OBITUARY fall into that rare category of living legends who’ve still got the inimitable spark that made them so special in the first place – the agonized, pulverizing drone of their bludgeoning, unstoppable tank-tread rhythms is something no one else has been able to adequately copy in two decades of trying.” 

-Blabbermouth-

Death metal legends OBITUARY make their Relapse debut with Inked In Blood, their 9^th full length LP.  Almost three decades in, Inked In Blood stands out as one of the finest moments in OBITUARY‘s already godlike discography.  Inked in Blood will be released October 28^th in North America (UK/World October 27^th and Germany/Benelux/Finland on October 24^th) via Relapse Records.  Today the artwork and track listing have been revealed.  Pre-orders for Inked in Blood will be available soon!

The riffs, groove, snarl and rage are as fierce as ever, putting most all other contemporary death metal bands to shame.  OBITUARY are THE definitive death metal band, and Inked In Blood is an instant classic amongst their already storied catalog.  OBITUARY are both the originators and the torchbearers of the genre!  Inked In Blood is the sound of true death metal kings reclaiming their throne!!! 

The band is currently wrapping up a festival circuit in Europe and now OBITUARY have been confirmed as direct support for the upcoming “Death to All” Tour.  The tour kicks off November 14^th in Los Angeles, CA and runs through December 7^th in Miami, FL.  A complete list of dates can be found below.
