For the Demented is the sixteenth studio album by Canadian thrash metal band Annihilator, released on November 3, 2017.[1]
Over a year after the release of Suicide Society (2015), Annihilator began working on a follow-up album. Founding member and guitarist Jeff Waters told Metal Wani in December 2016:
In February 2017, Waters said that the sixteenth Annihilator studio album was being co-produced by bassist Rich Gray (formerly Hinks),[2] making it the "first time I've actually had somebody else in the studio since 1990 (Never, Neverland) working with me on stuff."[3] On September 12, 2017, it was announced that the album, now titled For the Demented, would be released on November 3;[1] more details on the album, including track listing and artwork, and the music video for "Twisted Lobotomy" were released on the same day.[4] In support of For the Demented, Annihilator (along with Death Angel) opened for Testament on the European Brotherhood of the Snake tour, which took place in November and December 2017.[5]
