Chicago black metal berserkers Nachtmystium are all set to unleash their fourth official studio album, the punningly titled Assassins: Black Meddle Part I. Who knew these guys had a sense of humor?

The band will issue Assassins in North America on June 10 via Century Media and in Europe on June 23 via Candlelight Records.

Because they apparently had more doomy tunes on hand than they knew what to do with, Nachtmystium have an EP of five songs not featured on Assassins coming out next week. On April 22, they'll release the Worldfall EP to brick-and-mortar stores, though it's already available online through CM Distro and iTunes.

Outside of the studio, Nachtmystium have two straight weeks of European shows in May.
