new Mutilation Rites track streaming from I Am Legion 12''

Art for I Am Legion 12''

One of the hardest touring USBM bands, Mutilation Rites are going to release the new 12" I am Legion on Gilead Media which is an already established label known for working with different dimensional yet innovating black metal acts (see here ). While Mutilation Rites demo album which was released last year never left my heavy rotation playlist, I got understandably excited when I read about this upcoming release on Gilead Media's official blog. Now yesterday Cvlt Nation premiered the opening track Cloaca Maxima from the new 12". Take a listen here. Check back for pre- orders with some shirts in the next week.
