Controversial technical death metal band Rings of Saturn aren’t going away any time soon. The group have just announced that they’ve completed work on their sophomore full-length album for Unique Leader Records, and they’ll be embarking on a headlining tour this Summer with Arsonists Get All The Girls, Auras, and Aenimus. Get details and dates blow:
Set for release this Fall via Unique Leader Records, the record was produced by Brette Ciamarra at Studio 344 (Kamikabe, Those Who Fear, Trophies et al) in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania and features the drum prowess of Black Tongue/Infant Annihilator basher Aaron Kitcher, guest solo work by Day Of Reckoning guitarist Rusty Cooley and custom artwork by Mark Cooper of Mind Rape Art, who crafted the band’s seminal Dingir cover. The offering also boasts a vicious cover of “No Pity For A Coward,” from California deathcore merchants, Suicide Silence, in honor of late frontman, Mitch Lucker.
Comments guitarist Lucas Mann of the forthcoming release, “We are very pleased with the final outcome of the new album and are looking forward to unleashing it on our fans in the coming months! Through a group writing effort, we have taken a new and exciting direction with this album while still staying true to the brutal, technical, and overwhelming sound that RINGS OF SATURN fans enjoy. We are looking forward to all the feedback from everyone, as well as hitting the road again on tour with the new material.”
