Gore maniacs NECROPHAGIA are back! ‘WhiteWorm Cathedral’, the US cult death metal act’s long-awaited new album, will hit the stores on October 24th (October 28th in North America), just in time for Halloween…

Last November, NECROPHAGIA released an exclusive non-album track entitled "The Wicked". Watch the lyrics video on YouTube!.

Formed in 1983, NECROPHAGIA were one of the very first death metal bands in the United States. Often considered pioneers in the "Horror Metal" genre, the band gained notoriety after cutting their teeth in the underground by staging ambitious live shows, chalk full of blood, guts and gore. The band went on to receive world-wide acclaim for their 1998 release of 'Holocausto de la Morte', the band's genre-defining album featuring PANTERA frontman Phil Anselmo. Following this landmark album, NECROPHAGIA went on to release several well-received full lengths and EPs, most of them available on Season of Mist’s e-shop.
