Listen to Perturbator’s ominous new banger, Mors Ultima Ratio

Perturbator has just dropped an ominous new banger, Mors Ultima Ratio.

The track is James Kent’s fourth teaser from upcoming album Age Of Aquarius – which is due out on October 10 via Nuclear Blast. Following Apocalypse Now with Ulver, plus The Art Of War and The Swimming Pool, he says simply of Mors Ultima Ratio: “This was inspired by industrial music and black metal. The title roughly translates to ‘Death is the final accounting.’”

James has previously hinted of Age Of Aquarius as a whole: “I like to think of every album as a movie. The tracks are all scenes from that one big movie.”

Can’t wait to hear where this one fits in…
