No better topic for the 100th post on this blog: The fourth Deterior album Men Like Gods will be released November 29, 2011. The tracklist is as follows: (The Leviathan Has Woken) Watching the Lid Dead Revolution Replicant (The Leviathan Is Moving) Everything Is Alright Crawl Space Behind Red (The Leviathan Has Drowned) Men Like Gods The obligatory single will come out on November 15th: "Replicant" b/w "The Rhetoric Drain (Furnace mix)".
