This Is Hell to release Black Mass

Posted in Records on September 7, 2011

Long Island, NY's This Is Hell have announced plans for Black Mass, their fourth studio album, to be released on October 11, 2012 by Rise Records. Guitarist Rick Jimenez offers the following information about the release:

The new album takes the crossover and metal influences from last album to much greater extremes and the end product was Black Mass, by far the heaviest and thrashiest songs we've written and recorded.

Black Mass is the follow-up to 2010's Weight of the World. See below for a tracklisting as well as This Is Hell tourdates with Underoath, Comeback Kid, and The Chariot.
