Today, New York death metal pioneers SUFFOCATION unleash their new live album, Live In North America, via Nuclear Blast Records. In celebration, the band releases the track video for the single “Infecting The Crypts.” Terrance Hobbs comments, “‘Infecting The Crypts’ happens to be one of the earliest Suffocation songs. It stood the test of time for us and our fans, it just seems fitting to highlight this song off this album as it has become a classic Death Metal favorite. We hope our fans enjoy the Live in North America release as we think this represents SUFFOCATION’s strengths as a live performing band as well as the energy the fans give to us and we give back to them in return.” Order your copy of Live In North America here: https://suffocationofficial.com/live-in-north-america Listen on all streaming platforms: https://suffocation.bfan.link/live-in-north-america Live In North America is available in the following formats: CD Jewel Double LP Gold W Black Splatter (Limited to 1200) Gold (Limited to 300) Silver/Black/ Marble (Limited to 200) BlackTinted Black Cassette (Limited to 250) |
SUFFOCATION created the template for the brutal death metal genre in the early 90s. Landmark albums such as Effigy Of The Forgotten and Pierced From Within also went on to inspire the birth of the tech-death and slam death metal genres. With the departure of original vocalist Frank Mullen, the band marks an end of an era with a live album recorded live during his last North American tour. Mixed and mastered by Christian Donaldson (BEYOND CREATION, CRYPTOPSY) this release plays like a “best of”, and is the perfect farewell to one of the most influential singers in extreme music. The artwork for the album was created by Jon Zig.
