U.K. based death/grind metal outfit Memoriam featuring Karl Willets (Bolt Thrower) on vocals, Frank Healy (Benediction, Cerebral Fix) on bass, Scott Fairfax (Cerebral Fix) on guitar and Andy Whale (Bolt Thrower) on drums, are slated to release their third studio album titled Requiem For Mankind out June 21st via Nuclear Blast. The album was recorded at Parlour studios in the bands native U.K. and produced by Russ Russel (Napalm Death, Dimmu Borgir, At The Gates, Amorphis.) The band had this to say in regards to their upcoming album,
“Well, here we are with our third album, ‘Requiem For Mankind‘. On our previous albums, we have experimented with different musical and vocal styles which have finally got us to the here and now with what we think is the definitive Memoriam album. It’s death metal. It’s all we know. It feels like the previous albums were a buildup to this one. We finally have all the right ingredients in one place. We hope you enjoy it as much as we enjoyed making it. Onwards!”
The group is also set to play the album in its entirety for a special record release show on June 22nd at the Underworld in Camden, London. Check out the killer artwork for the album below which was nicely done by Dan Seagrave (Benediction, Dismember, Hyprocricy, Suffocation.)
