Death metal legends OBITUARY make their Relapse debut with ‘Inked In Blood,’ their 9th full length LP. Almost three decades in, ‘Inked In Blood’ stands out as one of the finest moments in OBITUARY’s already godlike discography. The riffs, groove, snarl and rage are as fierce as ever, putting most all other contemporary death metal bands to shame. OBITUARY are THE definitive death metal band, and ‘Inked In Blood’ is an instant classic amongst their already storied catalog. OBITUARY are both the originators and the torch-bearers of the genre! ‘Inked In Blood’ is the sound of true death metal kings reclaiming their throne!!!
