1622125_625308194191499_499049838_nSince I’ve already written not one, not two, but three articles referencing the Rockstar Energy Drink Mayhem Fetival today, I am delighted that I now get to write about Mayhem, the black metal band, who I can pretty guarantee you will never, ever, ever, never, never, never play the Rockstar Energy Drink Mayhem Festival.

The band has a new album coming out this year — their first since 2007’s Ordo Ad Chao — and while it doesn’t have a name or a specific release date yet, it does have a first single! It’s called “Psywar,” and you can stream it below, courtesy of Decibel. I’ve already seen a fair amount of bitching about it from tr00 kvltists on various social networks, presumably because it sounds like it was actually produced and mixed, not just recorded in a sewer tunnel an released into the world. I can’t really see any other real reason to actively dislike the song if you’re a black metal fan.

Whatever the hell Mayhem’s new album is called, it’s tentatively scheduled for a late May release via Season of Mist.
