Ringworm Debuts New Song on Metal Sucks!

 Band Confirm Appearance at Metal Sucks 4th Annual South By South Death Showcase in Austin, TX

Hammer of the Witch Available March 18th on Relapse Records

Cleveland’s legendary kings of metallic hardcore RINGWORM are returning with their Relapse debut Hammer Of The Witch. Hammer of the Witch is set release March 18th in North America, March 17th for the UK/World and March 14th for Germany / Benelux / Finland.

Today RINGWORM unleashes the second song from Hammer of the Witch; Metal Sucks is hosting an exclusive premiere of the track “Psychic Vampires” HERE.

Leading up to the release of Hammer of the Witch, RINGWORM will embark on the “North American Inquisition: Chapter 1.” These dates begin March 12th in Nashville, TN and wrap up March 16th in St. Louis, MO.  This run also includes an appearance on March 14th in Austin, TX as part of the 4th Annual Metal Sucks South By South Death Showcase.  The show will take place at the Dirty Dog Bar. Following the shows in early March, RINGWORM will be hitting the road in support of Hammer of the Witch beginning March 29th in Reading, PA, where the band will embark on a co-headline tour with Death Before Dishonor, which runs through April 19th in Lakewood, OH.  A complete list of dates can be found below.

The band worked on Hammer of the Witch with Ben Schigel (Chimaira, Walls of Jericho) handling production duties at Spider Studios in Cleveland, OH and vocalist Human Furnace handling the album’s stunning cover art. Destined to be a mainstay in every hardcore metal fan’s headphones, RINGWORM’s Hammer of the Witch serves to solidify the bands vital place in hardcore history. Noisey hails this work as “…yet another achievement in a long line of uncompromising heavy [music] from these dudes,” while New Noise Magazine raves, “Everything you love about the brutalest, viciousest metal infused hardcore legends continues without missing a step.”

The album is available for pre-order from Relapse in CD, LP and digital formats HERE.

The deluxe iTunes edition is available for pre-order HERE.   This version features two bonus tracks from RINGWORM’s 2013 EP release Bleed.

The title track from Hammer of the Witch is available for streaming on YouTube and via Soundcloud.
