Exhumed Remain “Unsafe At Any Speed” with New Single and Album Announcement
Automotive accidents are a major killer here in the U.S. Some people just don’t know how to fucking drive, so you get motherfuckers splattered all over the pavement. Enter Exhumed and their new album Red Asphalt — I think you can guess where they got the name…
As long-time purveyors of gorey death metal, Exhumed aim to ramp it up with their upcoming release. Pledging to offer the “most frenetic, unhinged slabs of sonic obliteration” this year, Red Asphalt boasts 10 ripping tracks to satiate your bloodthirst.
To further get your excitement up, the band put out a banger new track in “Upsafe At Any Speed”. As you can imagine, it’s brutal as all get out.
The band’s so excited about the new record that Exhumed mastermind Matt Harvey spilled his guts over the thought process behind the album.
“We’re very stoked to be back in your ear-holes with Red Asphalt. Our recent albums have taken you with us through the graveyards and operating theaters of 19th century Scotland, the horror aisles of the video rental stores of our youths, and through the band’s history itself. This time around, we’re inviting you to accompany us to a place that we spend a disproportionate amount of our lives, someplace familiar yet far more dangerous than it feels, a place that can take you to the hospital or the grave in more ways than you can imagine: the American roadway.”
Red Asphalt will be released on February 20 via Relapse Records, but you can preorder your copy today. If you’d like to catch ’em live, there are a lot of tour dates scheduled. You can find those below too.
