NeWS: Troglodyte meet their maker?

With what has to be a contender for the longest album title of the year Bigfoot-inspired death metal band Troglodyte have re-emerged from the Missouri wilderness with their newest bloody slab of brutality, “The Hierarchical Ecological Succession: Welcome to the Food Chain“. Recorded and mixed by Ryan Vincent at Apollo Audio Alt (Misery Index, Scour) and adorned by artwork from Dusty Peterson (Cattle Decapitation, Six Feet Under, Lamb of God), the bands long awaited fourth album not only sees Origin bassist Mike Flores, who has taken part in numerous live shows with the band for years, is making his first studio appearance but also guest appearances from  Brent Purgason (aka Pustulus Maximus of GWAR), Shwan Knight (Child Bite) and Ross Sewage (EXHUMED, GHOUL, IMPALED). The album drops via Blood Blast Distribution, the new imprint label of Nuclear Blast on 5th March.

The album’s first single comes in the form of an 8-bit lyric video for the song “Meat Your Maker” featuring guest vocals by Ross Sewage (EXHUMED, GHOUL, IMPALED). Ross had this to say about his contribution, “I was pleased as punch when the mutants in Troglodyte asked me to be a part of their music track, ‘Meat Your Maker.’ This was in fact because they punched me, repeatedly, until I meekly gurgled out my parts. Don’t f*** with Troglodyte“.
