WRETCHED's Adam Cody Discusses NEW Album 'Sons Of Perdition' At Metalliance Tour!

Charlotte, North Carolina's WRETCHED was given the arduous task of opening the second edition of the "Metalliance" Tour. So far they have proven to be up to par with bands of the caliber of DevilDriver, Dying Fetus, The Faceless and Job For A Cowboy. With the release of their brand NEW album 'Sons Of Perdition' (out now via Victory Records), there is no doubt in our minds that WRETCHED will soon be upgraded from an opening band to a kick in the face headliner or direct support.

Recently, we had the chance to chat with WRETCHED's frontman Adam Cody at the "Metalliance Tour" in New York City. During the conversation, he discussed the bands NEW album 'Sons Of Peridtion', the bands plans for 2012, and the "Metalliance Tour". Watch it, share it, and go see WRETCHED live!

As previously reported, DYING FETUS have confirmed a June 17th release date for their NEW album entitled 'Reign Supreme'. The album will feature nine tracks and is a "return to roots" with production focused slightly more on slam than in the band's last few works.

The album artwork for 'Reign Supreme' has been revealed and can be viewed on the latest official album teaser for 'Reign Supreme' (available within the video interview clip). The teaser also contains the first samples of NEW music from the album.

Last week, we had the chance to chat with FETUS' drummer Trey Williams at the "Metalliance Tour" in New York City.
