Abattoir is RAM’s new single and comes from Against, the band’s first full-length album in approximately seven years. Against will be released on October 9. Oscar Carlquist describes Abattoir as pure speed metal and compares the song with Exodus during the Bonded By Blood period and Accept.

Against focuses on RAM’s experience of being pushed beyond reasonable limits and refusing to submit. Harry Granroth and Martin Jonsson continue to use bridge pickups on the album. The record was designed as a return to classic recording philosophies and draws inspiration from early work by Dio, MSG and Sweet.

Against will be released on CD, in digital formats and on vinyl in various color options. The album’s tracklist contains 11 songs. Tobias Tobbe Petterson decided to leave RAM after 17 years as the band’s bassist, and Desekrator will become RAM’s new bassist.

Petterson will play his final concert with RAM on October 9 in Gothenburg at the band’s album release concert.
