Tasmanian tech-death masters, PSYCROPTIC, have uploaded a brand new track and cover art to the bands Myspace page. The song “Immortal Army of One” was taken from “Ob(Servant),” the band’s first album for Nuclear Blast Records and fourth album overall. “Ob(Servant)” will be released on October 14th in North America.

Drummer Dave Haley commented:

“'Immortal Army of One' is one of my personal favorites on “Ob(servant)”. The riffs on it are catchy as hell and stick in your head, and it is a very brutal song. Yet, it has a lot of dynamics throughout and is quite technical. It’s very PSYCROPTIC sounding, yet there are a lot of new sounds and ideas introduced. Just an all round cool track both to listen to and play.

"Lyrically, the song explores the the idea of a suicidal god like being – one who has omnipotence yet wants to relinquish it. A twisted thought - a being who has the choice to do anything desired, except giving up such a power; all powerful yet powerless at the same time.”

“Ob(Servant)” was mixed and mastered by former MACHINE HEAD and SOULFLY guitarist Logan Mader (DIVINE HERESY, GOJIRA) and recorded once again by guitarist Joe Haley.

PSYCROPTIC recently returned home after a very successful US debut on this years Summer Slaughter tour, which included THE BLACK DAHLIA MURDER, KATAKLYSM, CRYPTOPSY, THE FACELESS, DESPISED ICON, ABORTED and WHITECHAPEL.

Awesome good to see Psycroptic on their best game. Guitarist = inhuman picking machine. Although I can't say I'm fan of their new vocalist, sounds way to -core for me, specially in comparison to the gutteral freak who sung on "Scepter Of The Ancients".

Now Playing: Psycroptic - "Immortal Army Of One"

Why does everyone care so much about the vocals? It seems like people have gone from listening to the guitars only to caring about what type of growl someone can make. Just STFU and band your head.

I like bands like Most Precious Blood because of the singer, he puts a good spin on modern hardcore. Kinda reminds me of Youth of Today.
