Carnifex have announced that their upcoming new record has been titled Slow Death and will be arriving through Nuclear Blast on August 5th. The California band co-produced the effort with Mick Kenney (Anaal Nathrakh, Bleeding Through) and Jason Suecof (Trivium, Job For A Cowboy), while mixing was handled by Mark Lewis (Cannibal Corpse, The Black Dahlia Murder). Frontman Scott Ian Lewis said of the album:

“Album number six, over 10 years as a band and we have more fire and passion than ever. This album will reshape our genre and be looked back on as an album that started a new movement for aggressive, dark metal. We’re going to show those who love us and those who hate us just how far reaching our ambition is.”
