The follow-up to Six Feet Under‘s 2024 album “Killing For Revenge” is finished, and it will be extremely metal, as reported by MetalInjection. In a recent interview with Metal Blade Records CEO Brian Slagel for the 100 Songs That Define Heavy Metal podcast, Chris Barnes stated that he and guitarist Jack Owen worked together to record the new album.

The New Six Feet Under Album recording is coming along GREAT!

Mark Lewis has begun mixing. Super happy with everything we wrote and recorded. Really killer songs on this one ..

Pure 100% REAL Death Metal. No fillers, no over processing, no modern tricks or bullshit . Just Death Metal.

You’ll be getting more info on singles, release date, and tour info at the beginning of 2026!

It’s a really interesting album… Well, me and Jack wrote the songs on this… This time he wrote half of the lyrics on the album; I wrote the other half. And that’s been really interesting for me too, to collaborate as a lyricist with someone… So me and Jack collaborated on Eaten Back To Life, on ‘Shredded Humans’. And his writing style and his storytelling is very immersive as well. And I love the way Jack writes. He’s been a really amazing addition to Six Feet Under as far as progressing the band and keeping things interesting

This album, it encompasses just a lot of everything we’ve done. I mean, even going back to Haunted, there are some songs that are very rhythmic and I think more on the simple, straightforward side. And then there’s some songs that are very thrashy, which kind of came into play on the last album, on Killing For Revenge, where they’re more thrashy-based type of death metal. And then there’s some songs — one of the songs really reminds me of like something we would’ve done on The Bleeding when I was in Cannibal Corpse, when [Jack and I] were both in Cannibal Corpse. So it’s really, really cool. – Chris Barnes
