US death metal legends AUTOPSY have completed work on their seventh studio album, titled Tourniquets, Hacksaws & Graves, and set to be released April 21st (April 29th in North America) via Peaceville Records.
Tourniquets, Hacksaws & Graves was recorded at Fantasy Studios with producer Adam Munoz, and sees a continuation of Autopsy’s pursuit of the ultimate in metallic horror and extremity, featuring the longstanding combo of Eric Cutler and Danny Coralles on guitars, Joe Trevisano on bass and Chris Reifert on drums/vocals.
From all-out death metal savagery to crawling, doom-filled sludgery, Tourniquets, Hacksaws & Graves further pushes the limits of taste and brutality with this latest relentless onslaught of terror from beyond the grave.

Says the band: “Tourniquets tighten… hacksaws rip… graves are filled…This is AUTOPSY, this is death metal. With the stench of The Headless Ritual still permeating the befouled air, AUTOPSY has once again come for your very metal soul with their newest blood soaked homage to all things dark, twisted and horrific… once again bone crushingly heavy nightmares await. Tourniquets, Hacksaws and Graves will awaken the most depraved part of the coldest zombie’s stare… blood will flow, brains will be destroyed, coffin lids will be opened.”
