The new album by Prog Metallers LEPROUS - "The Congregation"
is out today, June 2nd, 2015 in North America via InsideOutMusic.
"I'm convinced that The Congregation will be a better record than that new Tool disc. It's truly difficult to show up an album with such a monumental amount of passion and craftsmanship as is unleashed here." -- New Noise
