Headliner Razor has triumphantly returned with their first new album in 25 years entitled Cycle Of Contempt. The record is set to arrive on September 23 via Relapse Records. They also shared their electrifying lead single “Flames Of Hatred.” Cycle Of Contempt marks the band’s first new record since Decibels which was released in August 1997 to critical acclaim. It was the band’s first album since their 1991 release Open Hostility and it was the only album to include drummer Rich Oosterbosch and the last record to feature bassist Jon Armstrong.
