Portland, Oregon’s LORD DYING have completed recording their much anticipated sophomore album and are currently on a West Coast tour with stoner/sludge trio Castle. The new record, entitled Poisoned Altars, was recorded with Toxic Holocaust’s Joel Grind (Black Tusk) at Audiosiege Studios in Portland and will be released January 27, 2015 (1/26 for UK/World and 1/24 for Germany/Benelux/Finland) via Relapse Records. Today the artwork and track listing for Poisoned Altars has been revealed. A video trailer for Poisoned Altars can be viewed HERE.
Poisoned Altars is direct result of the relentless work the band put in the past 18 months grinding it out on the road touring non-stop with the likes of Red Fang, Black Tusk, Corrosion of Conformity, Valient Thorr and more. Now the band will test out new material as they kick off their North American tour November 8th in Spokane, WA through November 26th in Portland, OR.
Front man Erik Olson commented on the new album:
“We are excited to unleash Poisoned Altars upon the world. We couldn’t be happier with the way the production came out. Joel really out did himself! This is our meanest and most focused record to date. See you on the road!”
LORD DYING’s video for the song “Dreams of Mercy”, directed by Whitey McConnaughy (Red Fang, ZZ Top) can be seen HERE.
LORD DYING’s debut Summon the Faithless is available now on Relapse Records. The album is available in CD and LP formats which can be purchased HERE and digitally via iTunes. Summon the Faithless can be streamed in full on LORD DYING’s BandCamp.
