Empire State Bastard, the project of Simon Neil and Mike Vennart, have announced their debut album Rivers Of Heresy – due for release on 1st September 2023 via Roadrunner.
“I set about making the most fucking poisonous vile music I possibly could, just unabridged hatred in musical form,” Vennart explains.
“Lyrically, it’s as misanthropic and nihilistic as I’ve ever written,” adds Neil.
Rivers Of Heresy is available to pre-order in various formats HERE.
