Global Music has set an October 12 release date (via Demolition Records) for "Babylon", the new album from U.S. rockers W.A.S.P. Themed around biblical visions of "The Four Horseman of the Apocalypse," the CD is described in a press release as "a metal masterpiece that will make fans both old and new craving for more."

The track listing for the album is as follows:

01. Crazy
02. Live To Die Another Day
03. Babylon's Burning
04. Burn
05. Into The Fire
06. Thunder Red
07. Seas Of Fire
08. Godless Run
09. Promised Land

...is it just me, or is that un-grammatical as hell?

Either way, cool to hear that there'll be new W.A.S.P. soon... just hope this one gets a frickin' U.S. release, since DOMINATOR never did...

Wow! Blackie is getting closer and closer to his "Christian" upbringing! COOL.

Yes... I approve of this.

But can a rocker get a U.S. release? I still never bothered picking up the last one.

Dominator was their best since Crimson Idol imo. Looking forward to this one.
The artwork looks a little "home made" to me.

I like the random pile of skulls in the corner.

Looking forward to hearing this. Love Dominator, my only complaint is that it's over too quickly.

Patience Mrs MetalGuy, give him time and lots of practice, then maybe he`ll last longer than a couple of minutes ..... Razz

As WASP is one of my top 15 favorite bands ever, you can guarantee that I will own this.

... This has made my (rather crappy) day. =D

I just hope that there will be a US release. The cover is pretty cool tho'.

I still need to get "Dominator".

But I might just pick this new one up first.

picked it up yesterday. it's pretty average WASP stuff. no bad songs, yet nothing that stands out as remarkable either. like Dominator, it's very short. 7 originals & two covers. the covers also seem out of place within the concept of the album.

Blackie still sounds great though.

Blackie always sounds great. One of the best singers in metal-dome IMO.

Didn't know it was out yet. CDUniverse doesn't have it being released until 11/03.

I was thinking of putting together an order tonight, but I guess I'll wait to read more reviews for this one.

I agree that the Chuck Berry cover is out of place, but Deep Purple's "Burn" is very close to the "concept" of the album. Just wish that it ended the album instead.

I wonder if he added the CB cover to try to sound like Volbeat?

It's not just you...it should read:

"a metal masterpiece that will make fans both old and new crave for more."

or, even better:

"a metal masterpiece that will leave fans both old and new craving for me."
