+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
In 2008, the band signed a world-wide deal with Nuclear Blast Records and began working on material for their label debut.
By 2009, SUFFOCATION had entered Full Force Studios once again
with Joe Cincotta (Internal Bleeding, Criminal Element),
who the band had worked with to record their two previous efforts.
Zack Ohren (All Shall Perish, Decrepit Birth) was enlisted this time around
for his mixing and mastering capabilities to capture the band’s ever-elusive live sound and intensity.
The collaboration between all the parties involved has resulted in what is without a doubt
their finest production to date!
Add in the artwork and sick visualization of the Blood Oath concept
by cult artist Jon Zig (Gorgasm, Deeds of Flesh) and you have the bands most complete all-around release yet.
Forged in the blood sweat in tears of its members,
SUFFOCATION’s oath to uphold their uncompromising sound remains intact.
In this era that accepts quality extreme acts more than ever,
2009 will see SUFFOCATION explode from the underground into the mainstream.
All hail the reigning kings of brutality!
