Psalm Of The Morbid Whore is the second full length album by Virginia/North Carolina-based technical metal enthusiasts, Loincloth. The new record follows 2012's Iron Balls Of Steel and its riff-packed instrumental relentlessness with equal amounts of density and strength.
With most of the nine song's on the album coming up so sweet and short that they do not exceed even the three minute mark, Loincloth cut straight to the point every time and riff after riff they have built another mysterious, heavy beast, which is also meant to be their final offering.
In their own words: "Loincloth is no longer a live band, so this record is our final offering not only to the great horned one below, but to the committed ladies and gentlemen of the Cloth."
The unusually long for the band's standards album closer, Ibex (To Burn in Hell Is To Refine), marks the grand finale to ruthless heaviness that their short presence and limited offerings brought to the world.
Psalm Of The Morbid Whore will be out September 29th by the trusty Southern Lord.
