The band's 6th full-length sees them tread into ambitious new territory with their first concept album; a musical melodrama in thirteen parts based on shocking true events. Death Revenge tells the macabre tale of a series of brutal murders committed in order to sell the victims' cadavers to anatomists, and the grisly underground trade of grave-robbery in the late 1820s in Edinburgh, Scotland. Recorded with producer Jarrett Pritchard (Goatwhore, Hate Eternal, Gruesome), Death Revenge takes the band's signature gore-drenched, death metal mayhem to theatrical and ghastly new heights.

A hole would be dug at the head of the grave, down to the coffin, and hooks or a crow-bar inserted under the lid. The weight of earth on the rest of the lid acted as a counter-weight, so that when pressure was exerted lid invariably snapped across, and the body could be hoisted out of the grave with ropes.” - Ruth Richardson ​Death, Dissection, and the Destitute​ 1987 “The corporation of corpse-stealers, I am told, support themselves and Families very comfortably, and that no-one should be surprised at the Nature of Such a Society, the late Resurrectionists in St. Saviours, St. Giles's and St. Pancras churchyards, are memorable Instances of this laudable Profession.” Anonymous ​A View of London and Westminster 1728 “Blest be ye man [that] spares these stones, And curste be ye [that] moves my bones” - William Shakespeare's epitaph 1616 Hare: ​Welcome to our nocturnal vocation Disembalming we grimly extract the expired Disinterring by lanthorn illumination To fulfill anatomists' cadaverous desires – Dr. Knox: ​Giving Nightwatchmen fits with the mortsafes you've picked Finding fresh graves to dig, I must say it's a hell of a gig Chorus: ​Night work be done, the lifeless made graveless. our prize to be won Exhumed by torchlight, dead weight dead to rights This night work, an unholy sight, undertaken tonight Hare: ​A livelihood in death we scrape Your casket vacant, corpse taken forthwith From our fell spades you will not escape Second coming ignominious, unclean and sick – Dr. Knox: ​Wooden shovels and picks, from your tomb you'll be nicked Sink to new depths of sick, compunction cut to the quick Chorus: ​Night work be done, the lifeless made graveless our prize to be won Exhumed by torchlight, dead weight dead to rights This night work, an unholy sight, undertaken tonight Solo - Matthew Harvey Dr. Knox: ​It's a dirty job, finding fresh graves to rob Solo - Michael Burke Dr. Knox: ​These are dirty deeds, six feet of dirt, dug dirt cheap Solo – Matthew Harvey Dr. Knox: ​It's a dirty job, finding fresh graves to ro Toil as the casket's slaves, death is our living wage Chorus: ​Night work be done, the lifeless made graveless our prize to be won Exhumed by torchlight, dead weight dead to rights This night work, an unholy sight, undertaken this - Night work be done, the lifeless made graveless our prize to be won Exhumed by torchlight, dead weight dead to rights This night work, an unholy sight, undertaken tonight
