West Virginia thrash Metal quartet, Executionist, will release debut its full-length album, "Sacrament of the Sick," on May 16. In the four years since the release of its debut EP, the band has sharpened the blades of its attack, both in terms of songwriting and performance.

The music will shift in tone throughout the piece to reflect the mood of each speaker. More...
