Peter "Pepe" Hansen explains the album: "We have aimed the new album in a more old-school direction than its predecessor. With people this experienced joining the band it has been a very relaxed and enjoyable process to write the songs, and we have all agreed on the concept. More metal and everything that follows. The cover, the title and the lyrics speaks for themselves. We are an angry-sounding metal band, and we have no intention of denying that. That's why the cover is more back-to-the-roots and the lyrics are again about aggressions, drinking and hate. The things that HateSphere has always been about. Expect brutality, melody and groove in just the right dose. We have had one hell of a time writing and recording it, and we cant wait to present the album to all of you before long!"

The album is produced by Tue Madsen (The Haunted, Sick Of It All, Dark Tranquillity), and the cover artwork is by Mircea Gabriel Eftemie, who has worked with Soilwork, Strapping Young Lad and Mnemic.

The tracklist is as follows:

01. The Killer 3:31
02. Venom 6:08
03. Smell Of Death 3:43
04. Decayer 4:54
05. The Wail Of My Threnode 1:16
06. Resurrect With A Vengeance 4:20
07. The Great Bludgeoning 4:34
08. Need To Kill 5:27
09. Devil In Your Own Hell 3:00

The band will play songs from the album when they headline the Headbangers Ball Tour through Denmark in September 2011.
