Paris-based composer/producer/multi-instrumentalist Perturbator, otherwise known as James Kent, has released "Mors Ultima Ratio", the fourth single in the lead-up to his album Age of Aquarius.

Listen to the track here:

“This was inspired by industrial music and black metal. The title roughly translates to ‘Death is the final accounting,’” Kent explained.

“Mors Ultima Ratio” follows album singles “The Swimming Pool”, “Apocalypse Now” – featuring lead vocals by Norwegian metal titan Kristoffer Rygg (Ulver) – and “The Art of War".

Perturbator will be touring across Europe and the United Kingdom later this year.

Age of Aquarius will be out on October 10th via Nuclear Blast Records. Pre-order here. Full tracklist:
