Official press release:
Sweden’s Axis Of Despair – featuring current and former members of Nasum, Coldworker, Infanticide, Volturyon, Livet Som Insats, Nervgift, and Overtorture – is preparing to release their debut full-length, Contempt For Man, via Southern Lord on July 27th.
Axis Of Despair’s Contempt For Man propels with twenty super-charged, raging songs, clocking in around the half-hour mark – short enough to retain attention, and long enough to serve a good taste of the bands particular brand of European grindcore.

Axis Of Despair will perform at Obscene Extreme 2018 in Czech Republic on July 19th. Watch for additional audio samples and further updates about the album to follow.
