STRYCHNOS – Unveil New Album “Armageddon Patronage”

Posted in Death Metal, Metal, metal bands, metal music, Music, music news, music videos on March 22, 2024 by Metal Odyssey

Dark Descent Records is set to unleash Armageddon Patronage, the second album from Copenhagen’s purveyors of ‘accursed death’ STRYCHNOS.

The follow-up to 2022’s breakout debut A Mother’s Curse delivers the expected onslaught of uncompromising black/death metal. Armageddon Patronage features a guest appearance by Michael Poulsen (Volbeat, Dominus).

The band has shared the first track off Armageddon Patronage, “Winds Warning the Final Storm.” Stream it now at youtu.be/M09KXx6gmpw

Armageddon Patronage embodies the immense drive of a band operating at full throttle, refining their distinct blend of extreme metal bound to no god, master, or genre. Following a string of intense and blood-stained festival performances STRYCHNOS is now the name on the underground’s lips. Propelled by this vast momentum, the band toiled tirelessly to record and release Armageddon Patronage less than two years after their debut.

“This release will showcase a natural continuation of what A Mother’s Curse began,” reflects bassist/vocalist Martin Leth Andersen. “The band seeks to refine and push further key elements from the debut – in ways of both aggressiveness and the more atmospheric parts. This follow-up also showcases an array of new details like alternative instrumentation, vocal variations, intros, outros, and a couple of noticeable guest appearances.” 

Rare is the band within these realms that improves so exponentially with each new release. Do not miss the flight of STRYCHNOS… for one may never know how long the underground can contain them.

Armageddon Patronage will be out May 17 on CD, cassette, vinyl, and digital formats. Pre-order at:

CORPUS OFFAL – New Seattle Death Metal Act Rises From The Ashes Of Cerebral Rot

Posted in Death Metal, death metal bands, Metal, metal bands, metal music, Music, music news, music videos with tags , , , , , , on March 22, 2024 by Metal Odyssey

Demo 2024 Out Today On 20 Buck Spin

Cerebral Rot is dead. From its maggot-infested corpse an entity even more repulsively loathsome has emerged, CORPUS OFFAL. Cerebral Rot’s lead guitarist/vocalist Ian Schwab and guitarist Clyle Lindstrom have reconstituted in this ghastly operating theater, now with the new rhythm section (de)composed of Jesse Shreibman (Bell Witch, Autophagy) on drums and Jason Sachs (ex-Demoncy) on bass.

With the Cerebral Rot songwriting core intact, CORPUS OFFAL reeks of similarly foul decrepitude and bludgeoning subterranean weight. Additionally, a sickly goregrind presence hovers over the murk like a horrid miasma, engulfing the tunes with a cadaverous redolence.

The two demo tracks here, “Ripened Psychosis” and “Gorging Gastric Decedent,” will both appear on the band’s eventual debut LP (in re-recorded form) to be recorded by Billy Anderson straight to tape later this year and released in 2025. For now, inhale the first rotted whiff of CORPUS OFFAL in demo form to sate your lust for excretion.

The tracks on Demo 2024 were mixed by Michael Foster and the band members, mastered by Dan Lowndes at Resonance Sound (Krieg, Drawn & Quartered, Witch Vomit), with art by Ian Schwab and layout by Dan Fried. If the works of Fetid, Cenotaph, Goatlord, Undergang, Cianide, and of course Cerebral Rot frequent your gravedigging playlist, CORPUS OFFAL should be on your list.

CORPUS OFFAL’s Demo 2024 is out today on cassette and digital via 20 Buck Spin; Find it at the label webshop HEREand stream it at YouTube HERE, and Bandcamp HERE.

Demo 2024 Track Listing:

  1. Ripened Psychosis
  2. Gorging Gastric Decedent

CORPUS OFFAL:
Ian Schwab – guitar/vocals
Clyle Lindstrom – guitar
Jason Sachs – bass
