This weekend, cult death metal heroes — and recent Decibel Hall of Fame inductees — Deathevokation return to the stage as part of Decibel‘s epic 20th Anniversary Show at Brooklyn Bowl Philadelphia. To celebrate, w’re streaming the first new Deathevokation recording in 15 years via the Decibel Flexi Series!  “Black Blood” appears on this exclusive flexi picture disc featuring artwork from longtime Decibel illustrator Mark Rudolph. Listen below and then head off to the dB store where we have an extremely limited amount of the issues containing the Deathevokation picture flexi available.

And after you score a copy of “Black Blood,” come celebrate two extremely extreme decades with us a North America’s only monthly metal magazine is throwing itself an epic hometown birthday blast with Decibel’s 20th Anniversary Show on August 31 at Brooklyn Bowl Philadelphia.

Nearly four decades after their messy birth, California death metal legends Autopsy will make their long-anticipated filthy Philly debut with a suitably sick headline performance.

“Autopsy is revved up, bloodthirsty and ready to bring 100% horrific Death Metal to Decibel’s 20th anniversary bash in Philadelphia,” says drummer/vocalist Chris Reifert. “Come on out and go insane with us!”

Not to be outdone, northeast death metal kings Immolation will perform a special “First 20 Years” set in honor of the magazine’s 20-year run; progressive death dealers Horrendous celebrate the 10th anniversary of their Ecdysis release with a special full-album performance; epic doom-bringers Crypt Sermon will perform their new record, The Stygian Rose, in its entirety; U.S. black metal progenitors Krieg will manifest ritual horror, Deathevokation will raise a chalice to old-school death metal; and Philly powerhouse grunge gods Rid of Me round out the bill.

“We are proud to reveal an event that feels as momentous as our 20th anniversary itself,” says Decibel founder and editor in chief Albert Mudrian. “We’re eager to party in our hometown with some of our oldest and dearest friends. And, no, you’re not on the guest list.”
