The Black Dahlia Murder announce new album 'Verminous,' share title track

February 4, 2020

Yesterday, Testament, The Black Dahlia Murder, and Municipal Waste announced a tour in support of Testament’s upcoming album Titans of Creation, and The Black Dahlia Murder said we’d be finding more about their next album this month too. Well, that was fast! Just one day later, they announced that Verminous — their ninth album — will come out April 17 via Metal Blade, and the title track is out now. Not that TBDM still need to prove themselves at this point in their career, but they still sound like a hungry band on the new song and it’s a genuinely awesome dose of the kind of melodic, hardcore-tinged death metal that these guys have been churning out for like two decades. Listen below.

As mentioned, the tour hits Long Island’s Paramount on May 7 and NJ’s Starland Ballroom on May 8. Tickets for NY and NJ go on sale Friday (2/7) at 10 AM with various presales underway now. All dates are listed below.
