American death metal legends Morbid Angel have revealed that the name of their highly anticipated new studio album will be "Illud Divinum Insanus." The record will be released through Season Of Mist Records in Europe June 6th and in North America on June 7th.

A single from the album, "Nevermore," will also be released on vinyl. "Illud Divinum Insanus" will be Morbid Angel's first album 2003's, "Heretic" and will be the first official release from the band not to feature drummer Pete Sandoval, who is currently recovering from back surgery, though he is still a member of the band. Taking his place for the time being is Tim Yeung, who is best known for his work with Hate Eternal and Divine Heresey.

As long as production is better than Heretic ill be happy. Yeungs a beastly drummer so thatyll be interesting to hear. Haven't heard who's producing; but Covenant being my personal favorite ;I wish they'd bring in Flemming again. Looking forward to it anyways

It's been too long! Anyone know what the latin translation is? Something like that insane god.. maybe a reference to Lovecraft's Azathoth from which Trey took his last name. Anyway, can't wait!

YES! The Blessed Beast is back. \m/ One of my all-time favorite bands. To say I've been looking forward to this album would be an understatement! Hel, I'd buy a new CD player and leave it open JUST for the release of this title.
