SUFFOCATION Offers Up Exclusive Live Tracks On Free iPhone App, Goes Mobile With Mocospace

July 7, 2009

New York death metal veterans SUFFOCATION are blasting into the future with an iPhone application, free to fans, and loaded to the brim with content anyone can now access anywhere they damn well feel like it! The app is currently available in the iTunes Store, and will feature news, tour dates, and best of all, music from the new record, and exclusive versions of songs the band recorded live on stage during their recent U.S. tour. And for those who don’t have one of those fancy iPhones, the death metal madmen are currently being featured on Mocospace, the U.S.'s largest mobile social network, where you'll be able to stream music from the new record on non-iPhones.

SUFFOCATION's new album, "Blood Oath", is scheduled for release in Europe on July 3 and in North America on July 14 via Nuclear Blast Records. The follow-up to 2006's self-titled record was recorded with Joe Cincotta (who worked on the band's last two releases) and was mixed by Zack Ohren (ALL SHALL PERISH, DECREPIT BIRTH). The cover artwork (see below) was once again brought to life by Jon Zig (DEEDS OF FLESH, DISGORGE, GORGASM).

"Blood Oath" will be available in three formats exclusive to the North American territory. In addition to the standard retail version, there will be a mail-order edition available exclusively through the Nuclear Blast U.S. webstore, and a digital version through iTunes.

SUFFOCATION filmed a video clip for the track "Cataclysmic Purification" on May 31 with director David Brodsky (ARSIS, GOD FORBID, KATAKLYSM, SWASHBUCKLE).
