NAPALM DEATH is now giving fans their first preview of their upcoming new album, Utilitarian, with the premiere of its first single, “Leper Colony”, on Brooklyn Vegan. Set to be released on February 27th in Europe and February 28th in North America, Utilitarian is the four-piece’s 14th studio album, and it promises to live up to NAPALM’s legacy as leaders of extreme music.
Upon Utilitarian‘s release, NAPALM DEATH’s limited-edition Analysis Paralysis 7″ EP will also be available for purchase at CM Distro in black and clear vinyl. Its B-Side includes the exclusive track “Youth Offender”, making this 7″ a very collectable piece for any diehard NAPALM DEATH fan.
The band is already confirmed to play the 2012 editions of Wacken Open Air (Germany), Hellfest (France), Maryland Deathfest (USA), and several shows from late January onwards, including a special record release show in Birmingham on February 25th.
