Virginia Beach, Virginia's THE DAY OF THE BEAST have returned with their third full-length album, the masterfully chaotic THE ULTIMATE CREMATION PYRE.

The raw, powerful production mastered by James Murphy (Obituary, Death, Testament, Cancer) and razor sharp performances make this a profound and powerful chapter in what will undeniably be THE “BEAST” LEGACY. For fans of Aura Noir, Defleshed, God Dethroned, Vader and Witchery
