Morbid Angel Reveal Details About Remix Album!

When Death Metallers Morbid Angel unleashed their latest album entitled "Illud Divinum Insanus" on June 7th via Season Of Mist, the Heavy Music community was appalled by what the band had created. Many believe that the band experimented way too much and as a result many diehard Morbid Angel fans were pissed off, some even turned their backs on the band. This is what vocalist/bassist David Vincent had to say about the bands latest musical creation:

"Well, the only thing we do is make music and we're creative. We don't think about these things so much. We do what we do. My work is done, other than we perform. But the studio is done. We made a record that broke down a lot of boundaries and included some stuff that was never included before. But we've always done these kind of things. It should be no surprise to anyone that we always do crazy things, 'cause we crazy."

"Illud Divinum Insanus", sold around 3,600 copies in the U.S. during its first week of being released and entered The Billboard 200 chart at position No. 141. This album marks Morbid Angel's first CD to feature bassist/vocalist David Vincent since 1995's "Domination".
