Along with the new album announcement, the record's lead single, "Cleveland Metal" has been offered up.

Athenar shared the following:

The idea to record an album of all cover jams with a certain theme is nothing quite new. The original title for this album was gonna be Throw Ups as an homage to the David Bowie's Pin Ups album, also of covers. Although Throw Ups is only two syllables and I need six. I guess I could've called it Throw Downs Throw Outs Throw Ups, but that would be just fucking stupid.

I just wanted to record some songs by bands who shared the same sights, sounds, and sewage of my region of birth," he continues. "Some of these tunes you may have heard, some you may have not. So please, do yourself a favor and check out the original versions… if you want to transform into a total fucking slimebag that is!
