Finally, the time has come, the first look into thrash legends FLOTSAM AND JETSAM's new album Rats In The Temple, out August 28 via Napalm Records. The album's title track is a ghoulish hit packing sweeping guitarmonies, thunderous drums, and exalted frontman Eric A.K. Knutson's haunting wail. After four trailblazing decades, countless world tours, and 15 groundbreaking studio albums, FLOTSAM AND JETSAM remain refined and revered.
Eric A.K. Knutson says about the track:
"We're super excited to release the first single from the album, which is very fittingly the title track, 'Rats In The Temple'! This song has a lot to say, and we hope the fans love the song as much as we do. This is possibly one of the most technically challenging songs FLOTSAM has ever recorded, and we look forward to delivering this song live as well!"
