On October 20th, Ventura's heavy metal icons Cirith Ungol return to release Dark Parade — the band's sixth full-length record — via Metal Blade Records. In true Cirith Ungol fashion, the art of Michael Whelan returns front and center, offering a glorious entry point expanded upon by lead single, Velocity (S.E.P.). The band will give Dark Parade its live debut at a record release show taking place at The Roxy Theatre in Los Angeles on October 20th. Tickets for the show are available now.

Stream Velocity (S.E.P.) below and pre-order Dark Parade via Metal Blade.
