New Zealand death metal giants Ulcerate have just announced their sixth studio album ‘Stare Into Death And Be Still’. Additionally, the masters of dissonance have also graced our ears with the title track from the album in all of its eight-and-a-half-minutes of glory.

Due for release on the 24th of April the band have announced via a press release that ‘thematically, the album explores the concept of ‘death reverence’ – drawing on recent personal experience to confront the truism that death and tragedy aren’t always sudden or violent, that people are often passive observers trapped ‘in the silent horror of observing death calmly and cleanly’.

Promising another atmospheric and brutal offering, you can pre order the album here. While you head over though be sure to check out the track below.
