The end of the year is fast approaching and here at Distorted Sound, we've had another
busy month covering the best rock and metal has to offer. We graced the carpet at the
inaugural HRH Awards (check us out looking suave!) and we caught up with some truly
exciting bands in our world and one such bands graces our cover this month; the might
CANNIBAL CORPSE. For decades now the band have dominated death metal and 2017
the band have returned and still have the edge over their peers.
Not only do we have CANNIBAL CORPSE but we bring you a whole ton of content
from this year's massive Damnation Festival! Alongside our big review we catch
up with death metal behemoths BLOODBATH, lift the lid on PSYCHEDELIC
WITCHCRAFT's killer sound and look at PARADISE LOST's massive impact on
heavy music. Aside from Damnation we look at the newest CAVALERA CONSPIRACY
record with Max Cavalera himself, trade blows with EMMURE, and look at
ANNIHILATOR's brand new album! That and looking at the exciting bands that are
beginning to make a dent in heavy music today we have a TON of exciting content in
this month's issue. So get stuck into this enormous new issue of Distorted Sound!
