BENEDICTION - new album 'Ravage Of Empires' is out now!

"'Ravage Of Empires' is a crusher of an album, that rolls forward like a heavy tank, unstoppable and disregarding trends." - ROCK HARD (GER) - ALBUM OF THE MONTH

"This is death metal and with RAVAGE OF EMPIRES Benediction undoubtedly occupy the genre throne - even in 2025 everyone else can just die off and throw themselves in the dust before the forefathers" - METAL HAMMER (GER)

Today, British death metal legends, BENEDICTION, are celebrating the release of their highly anticipated new album Ravage Of Empires, not only with the coinciding release of a lyric video for the album's devastating opening track 'A Carrion Harvest', but also by kicking off their European tour with guests Junge Rot & Master tonight in Hamburg.

"Brace for impact, or be blown away" - these lines from the chorus of fast-paced ripper 'A Carrion Harvest' can be regarded as a condensed instruction manual for Ravage Of Empires. The album's opening track sets the stage for a demonstration of pure old-school death metal power in eleven chapters by one of the genre's pioneers, and its torch bearers to this day and age.

You can watch the lyric video for 'A Carrion Harvest' below or stream Ravage Of Empires in full at a service of your choice.
