“This one has a good blend of old-school PSYCROPTIC-style riffage and slightly sludge filled, loosey-goosey sections straight outta the classic death metal era,” remarks guitarist Joe Haley. “The whole thing is brought together with the choral/orchestral chorus. Something for everyone! Going to be a fun one to rip live!”
 
Bassist Todd Stern agrees, “It’s an unbelievably catchy tune! The main verse is one of my favorite bits on the whole record. Classic riffage, steam rolling the whole song forward with solid momentum all along. Badass.”
 
Adds vocalist Jason Peppiatt, “I had so much fun with this song as it was the first song that [vocalist Jason] Keyser had written for the band and it was awesome to have someone bring different ideas to the table than what I normally would. Vocally it’s nice and fast and has a real sick flow and groove to vocal parts.”

Across "The Pulse of Annihilation", PSYCROPTIC sounds focused, disciplined, and fully aware of their trajectory. Complexity remains foundational, but it is now guided by compositional restraint and veteran confidence. With this release, the band reaffirm their status not merely as technical death metal stalwarts, but as architects actively shaping its future, proving that mastery, sharpened by time, only grows more lethal.

LYRICS:
Unseat the throne of hypocrisy
Who mourns when chaos dies
Relentless strife and delusion
Feeding fevered dreams of poisoned tribes
Who rise together a rancorous afterthought
Orate the funeral call

Every tool and motivation collected
Knowledge of generations
Capacity to become more than we are
A gift bestowed in blood
That we prefer to spill
Drown the land in our lost wisdom

Ripe for the taking
Yet left to rot on the vine
One beast and one alone
Watching ourselves from a distance
Shackled to amity
We gnaw our own limbs off

The diametric confidence
Of weaponizing ignorance
Complete control
An alignment came so close
But that is never who we are
Or where we stop and stand
No blade of grass

These ornate gods are all abundant
And for that we cannot forgive
Blindly we are bestowed as gods ourselves
A pantheon of the undead 

Glorious return to form
That much closer to the end

Glorious return to form
That much closer to the end

Every tool and motivation
Collected knowledge of generations
Capacity to become more than we are
A gift bestowed in blood
That we prefer to spill
Drown the land in our lost wisdom
An alignment came so close
But that is never who we are
Where we choose to make a stand
No blade of grass remains]]></description>

   <title>Sallow Moth &quot;Biohybrid Virulence&quot; - Official Track</title>
   <link>https://vilemetalvids.com/sallow-moth-biohybrid-virulence-official-track_827e97dfc.html</link>
   <description><![CDATA[<p><img src="https://i.ytimg.com/vi/oDV3eyDhUVs/mqdefault.jpg"  /></p>Dallas (TX) Prog/Death Metal duo Sallow Moth unveil their second single "Biohybrid Virulence" off their upcoming 4th full-length album "Hydrophilous Brood" coming 24 July 2026 via Willowtip Records.

"Hydrophilous Brood" is available for preorders on CD/LP/Digital.
Order via Willowtip ► https://bit.ly/hydrophilous-willowtip
Order via Bandcamp ► https://bit.ly/hydrophilous-bandcamp

Musically, Sallow Moth goes hand in hand with the aforementioned lyrical themes of transformation in that the continuous evolution of the project has become a signature feature with each album. This album retains a portion of the genre-shifting approach of previous works, but deliberately exhibits more focus on the intersection of technical death metal and brutal death metal, especially with the addition of a highly skilled drummer in Allen Gingerich. Notable influences on Hydrophilous Brood include Mortal Decay, Wormed, Deeds of Flesh, Cephalic Carnage, and Cynic.

Info - 
The brainchild of guitarist Dylan Cruz (Noxis, Scumbag, Dissonance), death metal band Hanging Garden blend multiple sounds to create something highly intricate, varied, and dynamic. Their trenchant prog/tech death approach is expertly tempered by transcendental melodic passages, and all of it bears a blackened touch on top of it. The music has many dimensions and shuttles between them so rapidly and constantly that it would be easy to miss the infinite variations without paying close attention. In the world of death metal, Hanging Garden have concocted an undeniably refreshing sound that is highly nuanced, textured, and worth delving into. 

Genre - Progressive death metal 

For fans of - Death, early Sentenced, Goreworm, Xenosis, Opeth, Krallice

Line up -
All songs written, performed, mixed and mastered by Dylan Cruz (Noxis, Scumbag)

   <title>Allegaeon - Dark Matter Dynamics (Official Video)</title>
   <link>https://vilemetalvids.com/allegaeon-dark-matter-dynamics-official-video_e6dae6830.html</link>
   <description><![CDATA[<p><img src="https://i.ytimg.com/vi/cz7uuD_W1H0/mqdefault.jpg"  /></p>Buy here: http://www.metalblade.com/allegaeon
"Dark Matter Dynamics" is a very special song for me. Having the opportunity to explore my love for steel string acoustic music, and bringing it into the fold with Allegaeon, will forever be source of pride. Not only that, but exploring this marriage of 2 styles with an acoustic heavy weight Adrian Bellue was an equally special." - Greg Burgess

"Dark Matter Dynamics" is here and I am pumped! Over recent years, we've grown close with our good buddy, Adrian Bellue, and I'm thankful Greg introduced us! He rips on the guitar and he's an even better friend. We're especially excited to play "Dark Matter Dynamics" Saturday night at Flatline Fest in Denver with Adrian himself!

"The chorus gets me hyped! I think it's the most jump-worthy Allegaeon riff ever written! This song has that classic, science-based Allegaeon vibe and theme, and it sonically showcases the album's range, letting the track breathe with a soulful, atmospheric instrumental piece that contrasts perfectly with the heavy riffs surrounding it.

Please enjoy "Dark Matter Dynamics"!" - Ezra Haynes

"The Ossuary Lens" serves as ALLEGAEON’s seventh full-length overall, but it’s the first to feature the return of original vocalist Ezra Haynes since his 2015 departure following the "Elements Of The Infinite" album. Replacing a singer is no easy task, so the fact that Haynes was in a place to rejoin is reason to celebrate. The cleaner vocal approach on the last three albums was a fascinating artistic maneuver, one that refreshed ALLEGAEON, but it’s undeniably thrilling to hear Haynes’ graveled larynx back in the fold on this inarguably brutal and technically dazzling slab of work.

"The Ossuary Lens," while not a concept album in the traditional sense, is a representation of several different viewpoints of death. “Each song is a different topic, however there’s always a different perspective of death tied in,” says Haynes. “Since the entire album revolves around this overarching theme of death, and the different viewpoints associated with it, we found ourselves very attached to the word ‘Ossuary,’ and since the album takes a look at death through different points of view, we found The Ossuary Lens to be very fitting for the album title.”

The record was recorded with producer Dave Otero at Flatline Audio studio in Denver. It marks the sixth album recorded with Otero. It’s of no surprise then that the sound on "The Ossuary Lens" pummels the listener, though the ferocity is balanced by the overt melodies. It’s the most triumphant and cohesive body of work that they’ve ever laid down.]]></description>

This song has that classic, science-based Allegaeon vibe and theme, and it sonically showcases the album&apos;s range, letting the track breathe with a soulful, atmospheric instrumental piece that contrasts perfectly with the heavy riffs surrounding it.

Please enjoy &quot;Dark Matter Dynamics&quot;!&quot; - Ezra Haynes

&quot;The Ossuary Lens&quot; serves as ALLEGAEON’s seventh full-length overall, but it’s the first to feature the return of original vocalist Ezra Haynes since his 2015 departure following the &quot;Elements Of The Infinite&quot; album. Replacing a singer is no easy task, so the fact that Haynes was in a place to rejoin is reason to celebrate. The cleaner vocal approach on the last three albums was a fascinating artistic maneuver, one that refreshed ALLEGAEON, but it’s undeniably thrilling to hear Haynes’ graveled larynx back in the fold on this inarguably brutal and technically dazzling slab of work.

&quot;The Ossuary Lens,&quot; while not a concept album in the traditional sense, is a representation of several different viewpoints of death. “Each song is a different topic, however there’s always a different perspective of death tied in,” says Haynes. “Since the entire album revolves around this overarching theme of death, and the different viewpoints associated with it, we found ourselves very attached to the word ‘Ossuary,’ and since the album takes a look at death through different points of view, we found The Ossuary Lens to be very fitting for the album title.”

The record was recorded with producer Dave Otero at Flatline Audio studio in Denver. It marks the sixth album recorded with Otero. It’s of no surprise then that the sound on &quot;The Ossuary Lens&quot; pummels the listener, though the ferocity is balanced by the overt melodies. It’s the most triumphant and cohesive body of work that they’ve ever laid down.]]&amp;gt;</media:description>

BAND SIGNING ANNOUNCEMENT: Progressive death metal band HANGING GARDEN

We're elated to work with Hanging Garden who have found a unique, refreshing expression within the style. They seem to have broken down elements of various related extreme metal genres and moulded something together in their own vision. The music is highly intricate, textured and multifaceted, with melodic bits embedded throughout. You can listen to a brand new song from the upcoming album "Dream Death" here.

Artist Statement: My goal with Hanging Garden is to explore vulnerability in its most raw and unfiltered form, and "Dream Death" represents the peak of that effort in every way. By treating extreme metal as a medium more than a genre, I've found my way to express all of the thoughts and feelings that are too often left unsaid. Words fail to do justice to describe how deeply grateful I am to Transcending Obscurity for validating my most personal and meaningful work as they place it into their legendary catalogue. 

For fans of - DEATH, early SENTENCED, GOREWORM, XENOSIS, OPETH, KRALLICE

Line up -All songs written, performed, mixed and mastered by Dylan Cruz (NOXIS, SCUMBAG)

#depravity #deathmetal #brutaldeathmetal #technicaldeathmetal 

Info - 
Australian death metal titans Depravity emerge after a gap of five long years. Having a flawless and consistent discography, they pick up from where they left off ensuring that things remain that way as they proceed to add more nuance and colour to their brand of music on their latest album titled "Bestial Possession". Maintaining the same line-up, they are able to retain their sound while fleshing out their compositions, proving that they can not only rampage with abandon at will but also showcase their musicianship in a more controlled environment. At this point in their career, Depravity's music has become fairly amalgamated - rooted in the old school sound but not necessarily sounding old school, with the gradual incorporation of more brutal and technical death metal influences having a slightly contemporary edge. One thing is certain - they function perfectly as a unit and are able to create devastating death metal at any given time and this time things are no different. They exude sheer class, confidence, and maturity, and death metal fans are definitely in for a treat before the tumultuous year ends.

For fans of - Morbid Angel, Suffocation, Deicide, Hate Eternal, Hour of Penance, Nile, Demiurgon

Line up:
Louis Rando (Impiety, The Furor) - Drums
Lynton Cessford (Iniquitous Monolith) - Guitar
Jamie Kay (ex-The Ritual Aura) - Vocals
Ainsley Watkins (ex-Scourge) - Bass
Jarrod Curley (Pathogen) - Guitar

Info - 
After releasing an astounding debut in "Surveillance Orgy", Swedish death metal band Februus return with a sophomore album that is more mature and consistent, yet just as fascinating and eccentric as one would expect it to be. There are no 15-min songs on this one; most of them in fact happen to last for just around five minutes and Februus make sure that they're nonetheless packed with plenty of deviations and surprises that are of more varied textures and moods than before. The music on "Construction of Conflict" in that sense is more compact and effective without losing its expressive power - there is so much happening that a normal five minute song feels like it's much, much longer than that. And they're not just crammed in for the sake of diversity; the alternate-dimension parts flow fairly coherently, maintaining the groove and/or momentum, and almost always the section that follows. Februus remain one of the most interesting Swedish death metal bands today, always having a trick or three up their sleeves, while maintaining a deceptively rough, clamorous demeanour. 

Genre - Progressive death metal

Info - 
Canadian death metal band Goreworm mesh different death metal styles in a way that's both confounding and challenging. They're throwing technical, melodic, and brutal death metal elements into a high-speed blender—hardly the most conventional approach—and when the music still manages to sound so coherent, it warrants a closer listen. They seem to have coalesced the influences on an almost cellular level - the aural phantasmic entity emanating from the speakers sounds decidedly Goreworm even when constantly showing glimpses of different musical personalities. "Miasmic Solitude" is Goreworm's most evolved creation to date and it must be celebrated for its passionate and innovative take on the technical death metal style.

   <link>https://vilemetalvids.com/sallow-moth-distended-in-panglacial-advent-official-track_3da37deb1.html</link>
   <description><![CDATA[<p><img src="https://i.ytimg.com/vi/_azXm-LU2ho/mqdefault.jpg"  /></p>Dallas (TX) Prog/Death Metal duo Sallow Moth unveil their first single "Distended in Panglacial Advent" off their upcoming 4th full-length album "Hydrophilous Brood" coming 24 July 2026 via Willowtip Records.

"Hydrophilous Brood" is available for preorders on CD/LP/Digital.
Order via Willowtip ► https://bit.ly/hydrophilous-willowtip
Order via Bandcamp ► https://bit.ly/hydrophilous-bandcamp

Musically, Sallow Moth goes hand in hand with the aforementioned lyrical themes of transformation in that the continuous evolution of the project has become a signature feature with each album. This album retains a portion of the genre-shifting approach of previous works, but deliberately exhibits more focus on the intersection of technical death metal and brutal death metal, especially with the addition of a highly skilled drummer in Allen Gingerich. Notable influences on Hydrophilous Brood include Mortal Decay, Wormed, Deeds of Flesh, Cephalic Carnage, and Cynic.

   <media:title>Sallow Moth &amp;quot;Distended in Panglacial Advent&amp;quot; - Official Track</media:title>
   <media:description>&amp;lt;![CDATA[&amp;lt;p&amp;gt;&amp;lt;img src=&quot;https://i.ytimg.com/vi/_azXm-LU2ho/mqdefault.jpg&quot;  /&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/p&amp;gt;Dallas (TX) Prog/Death Metal duo Sallow Moth unveil their first single &quot;Distended in Panglacial Advent&quot; off their upcoming 4th full-length album &quot;Hydrophilous Brood&quot; coming 24 July 2026 via Willowtip Records.

&quot;Hydrophilous Brood&quot; is available for preorders on CD/LP/Digital.
Order via Willowtip ► https://bit.ly/hydrophilous-willowtip
Order via Bandcamp ► https://bit.ly/hydrophilous-bandcamp

Musically, Sallow Moth goes hand in hand with the aforementioned lyrical themes of transformation in that the continuous evolution of the project has become a signature feature with each album. This album retains a portion of the genre-shifting approach of previous works, but deliberately exhibits more focus on the intersection of technical death metal and brutal death metal, especially with the addition of a highly skilled drummer in Allen Gingerich. Notable influences on Hydrophilous Brood include Mortal Decay, Wormed, Deeds of Flesh, Cephalic Carnage, and Cynic.

Info - 
US progressive/technical death metal Xenosis have been at it for years, honing their craft with each album and showcasing a flair for experimentation too. On their fifth full-length album, "Hermetic Transmutation", they retain their core sound as they elaborate on both the progressive and technical aspects, even borrowing elements of brutal death metal and dissonant death metal to achieve that. The influences are finely integrated into their ever throbbing, busy music, never seeming forced and instead adding meaningful variation to their intense sound. The music's persistent groove belies its highly intricate quality; there's just so much happening while you're busy bobbing your head, tapping your feet, or rolling on the floor. After years of toiling, Xenosis have created a delightfully engrossing album that is bound to confound, tantalize, and ultimately satiate fans of this kind of music. 

Genre - Progressive/technical death metal

For fans of - Death, Atheist, Gorguts, Evilyn, Mors Verum

Info - 
Canadian death metal band Goreworm mesh different death metal styles in a way that's both confounding and challenging. They're throwing technical, melodic, and brutal death metal elements into a high-speed blender—hardly the most conventional approach—and when the music still manages to sound so coherent, it warrants a closer listen. They seem to have coalesced the influences on an almost cellular level - the aural phantasmic entity emanating from the speakers sounds decidedly Goreworm even when constantly showing glimpses of different musical personalities. "Miasmic Solitude" is Goreworm's most evolved creation to date and it must be celebrated for its passionate and innovative take on the technical death metal style. 

For fans of: Arsis, Gorod, Xenosis, Fleshbore, Obscura

Info - 
Defect Designer have kept progressing with each album and they seem to have reached the acme with this one. It's wildly diverse and refreshing while retaining their core sound; it's a marvel how they continue to remain death metal or keep reverting to it after unabashedly exploring various sounds and imbibe influences from so many unrelated and unexpected styles. No song is redundant or sounding too similar at this point; they have something or the other hidden in it, often towards the end. This is decidedly their most ambitious album and they've outdone themselves on this one to offer a singular, exhilarating experience for the true prog-minded fans of the style. With the music on "Depressants" being as colourful as the Ian Miller artwork, it is anything but what the album title suggests - that's just the classic tongue-in-cheek Defect Designer for you.

   <description><![CDATA[<p><img src="https://i.ytimg.com/vi/oBmrnf8jx74/mqdefault.jpg"  /></p>UK Technical/Death Metal institution Cognizance unveil their third single "The Zone" off their 4th full-length album "In Light, No Shape" coming 1st May 2026 via Willowtip Records.

"In Light, No Shape" is available for preorders on CD/LP/Digital.
Order via Willowtip ► https://bit.ly/inlightnoshape-willowtip
Order via Bandcamp ► https://bit.ly/inlightnoshape-bandcamp

In Light, No Shape is a masterful Progressive Death Metal opus, rich in texture and atmospheric detail, delivering everything long-time listeners crave while channeling the mid-90s technical extremity of Death, Extol, and Meshuggah. This time, the band deliberately fractures the conventions of modern extreme production, opting instead for a more organic and visceral mix that sharpens the defining traits of their work. 

In Light, No Shape marks the first lineup shift in a decade, as the band sharpen from a quintet to a quartet with founding guitarist Alex Baillie stepping forward as vocalist while retaining guitar duties, following the 2023 departure of founding vocalist Henry “Big Mac” Pryce.

“This record is a defining milestone for us. Taking on vocals has pushed us to re-engineer how we experiment with the blend of elements in our sound, unlocking new creative pathways to compliment the core identity of the band. What you will hear are four dudes all adding their flavours to the melting pot to create a body of work that felt completely natural to us.”
Alex Baillie (Vocals/Guitar)

Mix and Master by Ronnie Björnström (AEON, BLOOD RED THRONE).
Artwork by Jef Whitehead (NAILS, LEVIATHAN).
Produced by Alex Baillie and Apostolis Karydis.

Lyrics:
Through rust and shattered glass
An unspoken promise slumbers
Awaits to be awakened
It shifts morbidly, steadily
With currents of unseen motion
Smeared reflections in pools of lead

A framed picture
Depiction of dread
Magnetic currents
Whisper absolution

A catalyst for psychological distortion
By calloused hands and burning breath
Deterministic fate dissolves into corrosion
By calloused hands and burning breath

Synaptic tides pull me forward
Through a wreckage of devotion
My shallow words echo in vacant fields

Deterministic fate dissolves into corrosion
Synaptic tides pull me forward

The weight of sacrifice laid bare
Every name dissolved in entropy
Every step a factual prayer

Underneath the cold steel moon
A wish granting sphere
Is bathed in its dying glow

No guiding star, no sovereign voice
Only the void left to bestow
What was it I wanted?Is this what I sought?
A curse, a gift, a lie?
A metaphorical gordian knot

Info - 
US progressive/technical death metal Xenosis have been at it for years, honing their craft with each album and showcasing a flair for experimentation too. On their fifth full-length album, "Hermetic Transmutation", they retain their core sound as they elaborate on both the progressive and technical aspects, even borrowing elements of brutal death metal and dissonant death metal to achieve that. The influences are finely integrated into their ever throbbing, busy music, never seeming forced and instead adding meaningful variation to their intense sound. The music's persistent groove belies its highly intricate quality; there's just so much happening while you're busy bobbing your head, tapping your feet, or rolling on the floor. After years of toiling, Xenosis have created a delightfully engrossing album that is bound to confound, tantalize, and ultimately satiate fans of this kind of music. 

Genre - Progressive/technical death metal

For fans of - Death, Atheist, Gorguts, Evilyn, Mors Verum

Line up -
Sal Bova - Vocals 
Gary Marotta - Drums

Info - 
Defect Designer have kept progressing with each album and they seem to have reached the acme with this one. It's wildly diverse and refreshing while retaining their core sound; it's a marvel how they continue to remain death metal or keep reverting to it after unabashedly exploring various sounds and imbibe influences from so many unrelated and unexpected styles. No song is redundant or sounding too similar at this point; they have something or the other hidden in it, often towards the end. This is decidedly their most ambitious album and they've outdone themselves on this one to offer a singular, exhilarating experience for the true prog-minded fans of the style. With the music on "Depressants" being as colourful as the Ian Miller artwork, it is anything but what the album title suggests - that's just the classic tongue-in-cheek Defect Designer for you. 

Genre - Progressive death metal 

For fans of - Diskord, Februus, Demilich, Contrastic, Swelling Repulsion, Disharmonic Orchestra

Line up -
Dmitry Sukhinin (Diskord) - Guitars, vocals, music, lyrics

   <description><![CDATA[<p><img src="https://i.ytimg.com/vi/qPprxWy0b-k/mqdefault.jpg"  /></p>UK Technical/Death Metal institution Cognizance unveil their second single "A Game Of Proliferation" off their 4th full-length album "In Light, No Shape" coming 1st May 2026 via Willowtip Records.

"In Light, No Shape" is available for preorders on CD/LP/Digital.
Order via Willowtip ► https://bit.ly/inlightnoshape-willowtip
Order via Bandcamp ► https://bit.ly/inlightnoshape-bandcamp

In Light, No Shape is a masterful Progressive Death Metal opus, rich in texture and atmospheric detail, delivering everything long-time listeners crave while channeling the mid-90s technical extremity of Death, Extol, and Meshuggah. This time, the band deliberately fractures the conventions of modern extreme production, opting instead for a more organic and visceral mix that sharpens the defining traits of their work. 

In Light, No Shape marks the first lineup shift in a decade, as the band sharpen from a quintet to a quartet with founding guitarist Alex Baillie stepping forward as vocalist while retaining guitar duties, following the 2023 departure of founding vocalist Henry “Big Mac” Pryce.

“This record is a defining milestone for us. Taking on vocals has pushed us to re-engineer how we experiment with the blend of elements in our sound, unlocking new creative pathways to compliment the core identity of the band. What you will hear are four dudes all adding their flavours to the melting pot to create a body of work that felt completely natural to us.”
Alex Baillie (Vocals/Guitar)

Mix and Master by Ronnie Björnström (AEON, BLOOD RED THRONE).
Artwork by Jef Whitehead (NAILS, LEVIATHAN).
Produced by Alex Baillie and Apostolis Karydis.
Photography by Nadine Geuter.
