Black metal quartet Mutilation Rites will unleash a new beast this summer. Their second album will be called Harbinger, as it was announced. The group finally finished their long-awaited follow-up to Empyrean. Once again recorded with Kevin Bernsten (TRIAC, Magrudergrind) at Developing Nations in Baltimore, the new album will be the band's first full-length to feature Ryan Jones (ex-Today Is The Day) on bass and vocals. A summer release is expected; more details will be revealed shortly.

In conjunction with their appearance at this year's Maryland Deathfest, Mutilation Rites will embark on a brief East Coast/Midwest tour supporting Black Breath in late May. Dates can be found below.
