ALTAR OF PLAGUES – Complete Work On New Album, New Video Released

Ireland’s ALTAR OF PLAGUES have completed work on their most accomplished and all-encompassing album to date, “Teethed Glory and Injury”.

Unlike anything the band have crafted before, “TGAI” sees mastermind James Kelly take ALTAR OF PLAGUES’ sound way further and much beyond the promise laid down with their debut “Sol” EP and their debut full-length “White Tomb”. With the band’s second album, “Mammal”, said release would see ALTAR OF PLAGUES take their sound into much bleaker and primal territory, the album that would take ALTAR OF PLAGUES’ initial blueprint which they founded their sound upon to its peak.

With “TGAI” (which was recorded, mixed, and mastered at Orgone Studios by Jaime Gomez Arellano), a wholly new sonic canvas has been created. While still harnessing the elements in which helped shape their sound in the past (the black metal and post-rock influence, even though now more marginalized), “TGAI” sees ALTAR OF PLAGUES create not only their most unconventional and visceral album yet, but their most overwhelming album in their repertoire. With an array of elements that range from industrial, electronica, along with taking the ambient and experimental influence that much further by creating a more extreme and even harsher soundscape, the many sounds generated on “TGAI” become weaved and integrated to create an unforgiving scenario of suffocating majestic glorious noise and sonic mental disarray. The result being “TGAI” defined as a vision unparalleled.

To officially be released in North America on April 30th, tracklisting for “Teethed Glory And Injury” goes as follows:

1. Mills
2. God Alone
3. A Body Shrouded

5. A Remedy And A Fever
