HELL MILITIA are touring in support of the band’s latest album, ‘Jacob’s Ladder’, which is streaming in its entirety at Bandcamp. The band’s latest opus, featuring eight tracks of cryptic, dissonant black metal was released in 2012 and is available for purchase at the Season of Mist e-shop. Here are the cover artwork and track list:

On the new album, lead guitarist T. Persecutor states: “HELL MILITIA opens the descent from Jacob’s Ladder. More violent, more twisted, more dissonant than ever, this album was conceived in isolation and opens new sides of the madness. ‘Jacob’s Ladder’ reveals the inner side of HELL MILITIA. Violent and dissonant, urban and religious, the new HELL MILITIA is a mix of old school and modern black metal.”
