Broken Hope Releases Title Track from Upcoming Album Mutilated & Assimilated on iTunes, Listen
The title track off the new album from Chicago death metal band Broken Hope is now available on iTunes. The group’s forthcoming full-length effort, their first since 2013’s Omen Of Disease, will be available June 23, 2017 via Century Media Records. The album will most likely become known, at least momentarily, as the album that featured Jeff Hanneman’s (Slayer) guitar collection – all of Jeremy Wagner’s and Damian Leski’s rhythm guitar tracks on Mutilated & Assimilated were recorded using the guitar collection Wagner acquired from Hanneman’s estate.
Regarding the new album, guitarist/lyricist/founding member Jeremy Wagner says:
“For me personally, I feel MUTILATED and ASSIMILATED is my own finest hour as a guitarist and lyricist since I formed this band as teenager. I ‘ve never felt this inspired before. The album has my strongest riffage to date, it also has Leski riffage on a few songs, it has my best friends on it, and in a crazy twist, I used JEFF HANNEMAN’s guitars to write the album with and used them to track with in honor of his influence on myself AND the world of metal. There’s a LOT going on with this new BH album! I can’t wait for you all to hear MUTILATED and ASSIMILATED. DEATH METAL forever!”
