Suicide Silence will start work on their new album slated for a summer 2014 release, next week. The band will be working with producer Steve Evetts who has also produced albums for Sepultura and The Dillinger Escape Plan, beginning November 4. The album will be the first since Mitch Lucker’s passing and will feature former All Shall Perish vocalist Eddie Hermida who has taken the reigns as lead vocalist.

The band says they are excited to be working on new material, posting this message on their Facebook page:

This record will be the grittiest, most meaningful piece of work we’ve ever stood behind. We cannot wait for everyone to hear it. Steve Evetts is someone we’ve worked closely with for a long while, not only on The Black Crown, but also on some instrumental demos just prior to the tragedy last Fall. Here we are a year later prepping to record the nastiest, heaviest, most disgusting work we’ve ever done. Expect the unexpected. This is for Mitch.
