The new album from Boston progressive death unit PATHOGENIC is out now on Skepsis RecordingsCrowned In Corpses marks the band’s first full-length release in over half a decade, promising a bold evolution of their signature brand of progressive tech death, while retaining the intensity that has defined the band for years.

Stream the album on BandcampSpotify and Apple Music.

Watch the official music videos for the album’s title track and “Mass Grave Memory” on PATHOGENIC’s YouTube channel.

In support of the album, PATHOGENIC will hit the road with technical metal band Leylines (members of Through the Eyes of the Dead and ex-The Contortionist). The tour kicks off March 1 in Nashville. Dates are as follows:

3/1 – DRKMTTR – Nashville, TN
3/2 – Culture Shock – Atlanta, GA

In 2022, the band’s resurgence was ignited when original vocalist Jake Burns and new drummer Tyler Montaquila joined forces with guitarists Chris Gardino, Justin Licht, and bassist Dan Leahy. Together, they’ve forged a sound that is ferocious, intricate, and unapologetically heavy, delivering metal that demands to be heard.

Crowned in Corpses was produced by Raymond Marte (Moon Tooth), Anthony Lopardo (Loss Becomes), and ourselves. Raymond Marte mixed and mastered the record. “Crowned in Corpses” music video was shot by Nick Court of Killing It Entertainment.

Out of Boston’s depths emerges PATHOGENIC, a force unshackled from hiatus and reborn with Crowned In Corpses. Over 42 punishing minutes, this progressive death metal quintet weaves together labyrinthine riffs, relentless rhythms, and chilling visions of a decaying world.
