With the announcement of Cannibal Corpse s 15th album,
Violence Unimagined, and the new song Inhumane Harvest also came the news that the band s longtime producer and death metal veteran Erik Rutan had officially joined as a full-time member. In a new statement, he has confirmed this does not mean the end of Hate Eternal, the band he founded in 1997.

He was also charged with assaulting a police officer.
