Reigning grindcore champions PIG DESTROYER have
revealed the full details of their highly anticipated new album Book
Burner. The band self-recorded their razor-sharp fifth-full
length and first album in over five years at guitarist Scott Hull's Visceral
Sound Studios. Book Burnerwill see an October 22nd
release via Relapse Records and features 19 tracks with a return to the band's
raw, misanthropic sound. A complete tracklisting is included below with
the first audio samples available in this teaser HERE.
The band has posted the second in a series of in-studio
videos. This video focuses on the all of the guest vocalists that
contributed to Book Burner. Guest vocalists on the
album include Jason Netherton (Misery Index), Richard Johnson (Drugs of Faith/Agoraphobic
Noisebleed) and Kat Katz (Agoraphobic Nosebleed, ex-Salome). The video is
available for viewing HERE.
Book Burner will be available on multiple
formats including CD, Deluxe 2xCD, LP, Deluxe 2xLP, Cassette and Digital.
Pre-Orders for all of the editions are available via Relapse RecordsHERE and iTunes HERE.
The deluxe editions will each contain a bonus disc of punk
covers and a short story, titled The Atheist, penned by

religion that showcases the renowned lyricists' unsurpassed style for the first
time as prose. The deluxe 2xLP will also contain an etched b-side
featuring artwork by Wormrot frontman Arif Rot.
