For death metal fans, the prospect of a new Gorguts album is a spectacular. In 2001, they released what might have been their best album yet, From Wisdom to Hate, but called it quits a few years later following the death of drummer Steve MacDonald.

In 2008 they reunited, at first briefly, to eventually work on the album we now know as Colored Sands, and while the distinctly American spelling is a curious one for the Quebecois legends, a new song released today via Stereogum has brought the prospect of hearing their new album one step closer to reality.

What might to most seem like little more than an lyric video is, for death metal fans, big fucking news. Better still, the song itself, “Forgotten Arrows,” is exactly what we wanted from the band—a continuation of the angular, distressing sounds of From Wisdom to Hate with the right amount of old school flavour.

Colored Sands comes out on September 3rd.
