Maryland death metal and grindcore amalgam Misery Index have announced their realignment with extreme music authority, Season of Mist. Having previously released Live in Munich (2013) The Killing Gods(2014) and Rituals of Power (2019) with the label, the reunion marks a pivotal point in the already sterling legacy of the veteran aggressors.
Featuring current and former members of Pig Destroyer and Dying Fetus, Misery Index will release their eighth full length album with Season of Mist later this year. In addition, the band will begin their An Epitaph for Endtimes EU/UK Summer Tour which includes various festival appearances including featured plays at Wacken Open Air, Summer Breeze in Germany and more.
“We in Misery Index are mega-chuffed to be back in the cozy, dark embrace of the Season of Mist family!”, shared bassist/vocalist Jason Netherton. “The delicious smell of a classic independent label is both welcoming and intoxicating. Like the minstrels of yore, we wandered into the wilderness for a few years until we found our way back to where we belong. Cheers to great days ahead together!”
