Alterbeast's first album in four years, titled Feast, is out on February 23. The album features original guitarist Andrew Lamb on both guitar and bass, Flub vocalist Michael Alvarez, and Trivium drummer Alex Bent. We're happy to share with you today the band's new song "The Maggots Ascension," which is a follow-up to the song "Throne Of Maggots" from Alterbeast's 2014 debut album Immortal.
"We are stoked to give you another advance track from Feast! 'The Maggots Ascension' is a part 2 to the song 'Throne of Maggots' from our first record Immortal. Lyrics cover the maggots metamorphosis into flies and from slave to reign. Music is in the same vein as ToM: Fucking. Brutal. We hope you dig it and can't wait for you to hear all the other stuff we did on 'FEAST' that we know you will throughly enjoy! Keep on the lookout for more tunes and see you on the road this February/March w/ Grindmother, Inferi, The Kennedy Veil and Aethere!"
