Relentless Retribution is the sixth studio album by American thrash metal band Death Angel. The album was released September 3, 2010, in Europe (but not including the United Kingdom), on September 6 in the United Kingdom, and on September 14 in the United States. Its second track "Claws in So Deep" features an acoustic part performed by Rodrigo y Gabriela.[6] This is Death Angel's first album with bassist Damien Sisson and drummer Will Carroll (replacing original members Dennis Pepa and Andy Galeon respectively), and their first collaboration with Jason Suecof, who has since produced the band's subsequent albums. The album sold 2,700 copies in its first week in the U.S.[7]
