Greek thrashers Suicidal Angels announce their new album Profane Prayer which will be released on March 1st 2024.

In addition to the great news about the new album, the band has today released their first Single ‘When the Lions Die‘. Last week Suicidal Angels also announced a mainland European tour.

Vocalist Nick comments about the new album Profane Prayer:

“The time has come! Finally, almost after 4 years, the 8th studio album of Suicidal Angels is true and ready to unleash itself into the market, bringing you some new tunes to satisfy the needs and the appetites of the toughest audience! March 1st of 2024, this beast will be out, in digital and physical form in all of Nuclear Blast’s channels. We have returned and it will be killer!!!”

He adds about the first single ‘When the Lions Die‘:

“Out of severe internal quest, thousands of reading pages to manage and conquer the multiple demons and beasts inside, several worlds collide, here’s is our first single, When The Lions Die!”

A new generation of thrash metal youngsters has risen from the ashes of a club of titans like Slayer, Exodus, Kreator and many more. Greek ambassador’s supreme Suicidal Angels are one of the most jaw-dropping representatives of the injection of new blood. At the dawning of this coming spring, this four-piece of energetic thrashers will release their eighth studio album Profane Prayer four years after their previous attack Years Of Aggression. It marks their return to the Nuclear Blast family. ‘It feels like a homecoming’ confirms composer Nick Melissourgos (vocals, guitars) who started the band in 2001 when he was 16 years old.

Suicidal Angels went through a step-by-step development since their humble start in 2001. Not earlier than in 2007, they entered the studio to record their striking debut album Eternal Domination which caused a stir in the Hellenic scene. They were invited by Sakis Tolis of Rotting Christ to do their first EU tour. This was only the beginning of a long era of growing popularity. Another milestone was supporting Kreator, resulting in a long-time friendship with Mille Petrozza. In 2010 Suicidal Angels even opened up for the Big Thrash 4 in Athens at Sonisphere and at the beginning of 2014, they finally undertook their first independent headline tour throughout Europe. Every two years they released new albums, continuing to tour widely. In the meantime, they conquered Asia, South America and Europe and there is more to come.
