Canadian technical death metallers GORGUTS have inked a deal withSeason Of Mist. The band’s fifth studio album will be released later this year.
“It is with great joy that I announce the return of GORGUTS to Season of Mist!” says GORGUTS guitarist/vocalist Luc Lemay.
“Things have not always been easy these last couple of years, but now it’s all behind us and all I can say is that I’m more than eager to share this new record with all of you.
“Our forthcoming album will be a very detailed, dark, epic, emotional, conceptual record and Season Of Mist was my first choice to be the standard-bearer for this new GORGUTS opus and I must say that I am more than happy to work with them again.
“Stay tuned on the band’s web sites for more updates and we’ll soon hit the stage to share this new music with you! I can never thank each of you enough, our dedicated fans, for more than 20 years of support! Thanks to you!!”
