Skeletonwitch: "Burned From Bone"

Following the very good Forever Abomination, Skeletonwitch is releasing a new album, Serpents Unleashed.  "Burned From Bone" is the first track/video to surface online, preceding the album's release date of late October.  Lots of time to wait, but 2013's been flying by, so I think October will be here before we know it.

Kurt Ballou and John Baizley always seem to have their hands full these days. 





SKELETONWITCH: New Album Serpents Unleashed Due This October

Free Download Of New Track Available Now; Behind-The-Scenes Studio Footage Posted

Currently celebrating ten years of blackened metal, SKELETONWITCH are proud to unveil details about their most venomous release yet -- Serpents Unleashed. Set for release in North America on October 29 (October 28 EU/UK, October 25 Germany), the highly anticipated follow-up to 2011's critical-lauded, Billboard-charting Forever Abomination was recorded earlier this year at GodCity Studio with Kurt Ballou (Converge, Trap Them, High on Fire), who expertly channeled the band's colossal live sound into eleven blasts of abominable, frosty fire. Serpents Unleashed features cover artwork by John Baizley (Baroness, Kylesa, Kvelertak), who returns to the 'WITCH fold for the first time since 2007's Beyond The Permafrost.

Today, new track "Burned From Bone" -- which the band debuted earlier this year during a headlining set at Pitchfork's "Show No Mercy" showcase at South By Southwest -- premiered on SiriusXM's "Liquid Metal with Jose." The song is available now as a free* download by texting SERPENTS to 24587. Behind-the-scenes studio footage of the band recording the track at GodCity can be view at THIS LOCATION.
