Australian thrash grinders King Parrot have inked a number of new recording deals for their upcoming record, which was recorded by Phil Anselmo (Pantera, Down) in Nodferatu’s Lair Studio and is set to come out this spring via Agonia Records in Europe, Housecore Records in North America and Rocket/EVP in Australia.

Emerging through the baptism of fire of the Australian metal scene, King Parrot have pillaged their way to international recognition in a short period since 2011. Drawing influence primarily from the thrash, grind, hardcore and punk scenes of the 80’s and 90’s, a new sound was created fusing those styles and attitudes with a fresh approach that encapsulates their aggression, humour and intensity seamlessly.

The band have an extensive touring schedule posted below.
