Cannibal Corpse is now streaming their latest single "Summoned For Sacrifice", and yes – it'll tear you into a thousand pieces. Though who didn't expect that? Cannibal Corpse has been putting out some of their best material in years with Erik Rutan, and this is clearly no different. Check it out above alongside a video directed by David Brodsky of My Good Eye: Music Visuals.
"I believe that our songwriting has progressed in a manner where every song paves its own path, whether it's a straightforward or technical song," notes guitarist Rob Barrett. "Sometimes it's a mix of both, so there's no preconceived idea that we want to be more technical. The music just sort of takes its own course."
"I don't think there was any conscious effort to make things more technical, so if it wound up that way it would just be a natural result of us trying to write the heaviest songs we could," added Webster.
"I never go into a record thinking about anything, I just let the writing flow freely with no limitations," said guitarist and producer Erik Rutan. "But this time, I knew I wanted to push the envelope a bit in a different direction than Violence Unimagined; expand the dynamics, explore new territory without departing from what Cannibal Corpse is and always shall be."
