Norwegian Black Metallers RAGNAROK premiere first song from new album “Psychopathology”

The title track of RAGNAROK’s forthcoming eighth studio album, “Psychpathology”, has made its on-line debut. Due out on March 25th via Agonia Records, the follow-up to 2012’s “Malediction” was recorded in Endarker Studio and produced by Marduk’s bassist, Devo. The cover artwork was made by Marcelo Vasco (Slayer, Machine Head, Dimmu Borgir).

“Psychopathology” will be the first album in RAGNAROK’s history that doesn’t feature founder Jontho on drums. Having taken over the role of frontman, his place behind the drum kit is taken by DAUDEN drummer Malignant, who joined the band in 2014.

Founder and frontman Jontho had this to say about fans can expect from the album: “Your wait will finally come to an end in 2016 when we release “Psychopathology”, our eighth full-length album. I can say with absolute certainty that this album will be the best in RAGNAROK’s career to date. It is the result of dedication, hard work, and the musical skills of our lineup, and is the next stage in the band’s development, both musically and lyrically. “Psychopathology” is about to unleash total chaos upon you as it invites you to dive deeper into the dark recesses of the human mind”.
