Battlecross’ new album is called Rise to Power, the first single is called “Not Your Slave,” and the album art looks like this:

So I guess poor Battlecross have been feeling oppressed as of late. Bummer.

Not a bummer: the aforementioned “Slave,” which is characteristically Hannemalistic. I’m not yet convinced that Slayer’s new album will be a good Slayer album, but I am fairly confident that Battlecross new album will be a good Slayer album.

Stream “Not Your Slave” below. Rise to Power comes out August 21 on Metal Blade. You can pre-order it here.
