In three weeks from today, “Cosmic Terror”, the sophomore album from Germany’s blackened death metallers THE SPIRIT will hit the stores and has already been voted ‘album of the month’ by Legacy Magazine and scored 9.5/10 at Powermetal.
Today, the combo from Saarbrücken releases their third single and misanthropic anthem ‘Repugnant Human Scum’ that some fans might have already witnessed live.
Bandleader M.T. comments: “The release date of ‘Cosmic Terror’ is drawing closer and we have one more song to present to you in advance. At some shows in 2019, we already played several tracks from the upcoming album and the one we will unleash this Thursday was by far the one with the most powerful reaction from the audience. So be excited about what is to come…”
