"Aquatic Occult" out this April 8 via Metal Blade Records
Featuring Lamb of God's Randy Blythe, Amebix's Stig Miller, Corrosion of Conformity's Reed Mullin + Many More
Doom/sludge metal group SOURVEIN will release their very first Metal Blade Records offering "Aquatic Occult" this coming Friday, April 8.
The album features guest performances by Lamb of God's Randy Blythe (vocals, organ), Amebix's Stig Miller (guitar), Corrosion of Conformity's Reed Mullin (drums) and many others, so listeners should undoubtedly expect a crushingly-heavy record of epic proportions - inspired by mysterious terrors of the deep ocean blue.

Frontman T-Roy said, "It's been five long years since SOURVEIN released an album, but we are back with Aquatic Occult. A lot has happened in five years, so this album has a story to tell, one formed from an ever-changing life by the seaside. Written in the saltwater, sun and wind that's been steeped into this band's blood from the very beginning, it's heavy like hurricane waves- here's your first listen to that story. Enjoy."
Aquatic Occult is produced by Mike Dean and mastered by Brad Boatright (Sleep, Yob).
Pre-orders for Aquatic Occult are available now in CD, vinyl, and digital formats via metalblade.com/sourvein.
