MORGOTH – Announce new vocalist, “Ungod” studio album update and release shows!
After returning from a highly successful European tour with Bolt Thrower, German Death Metal pioneers have been working hard in the studio for their new album release, “Ungod”.
Earlier this week however, MORGOTH revealed having parted ways with longtime vocalist Marc Grewe and commented “The chance for a further cooperation between us simply wasn’t possible anymore”. In the meantime, the band already announced that Karsten “Jagger” Jäger from Germany’s long-running Metal act Disbelief will be handling the vocals on the upcoming album as well as on all the next scheduled live-shows for MORGOTH.
After wrapping up all recordings for “Ungod”, the album is now in its mixing process and a (rough mix) teaser of new MORGOTH music featuring Jagger on vocals has already been launched online here: https://soundcloud.com/centurymedia/morgoth-ungod-teaser-rough/
“Ungod” will be coming out on March 30th, 2015 in Europe (March 27th, 2015 in Germany) via Century Media Records and will be celebrated with a string of very special release club shows in Germany with support by Deserted Fear as well as local opening acts to be announced soon.
