Cannibal Corpse Commence Work on New Album

Death metal legends Cannibal Corpse have released the following statement:

“Thanks for all your support of ‘Red Before Black’ and all our touring in support of the record. Time to enter the crypts and begin work on the next record. Keep supporting death metal in the new decade!”

This latest album will be the band’s fifteenth (!) full-length. Their last album, Red Before Black, was released in November of 2017.

There’s no word on whether or not the album will include the return of guitarist Pat O’Brien, who has been hiatus from the band since a bizarre arrest at the end of 2018. Their frequent producer, Erik Rutan (Hate Eternal, ex-Morbid Angel), has filled in on live dates. However, frontman George “Corpsegrinder” Fisher has suggested that O’Brien will return to the fold eventually.
