Stream ANCIENT DEATH’s Ego Dissolution HERE.

Ego Dissolution, the acclaimed debut album from Massachusetts-based cosmic death metal quartet ANCIENT DEATH, is now streaming in its consuming entirety, ahead of its release this Friday on Profound Lore Records.

Blending progressive and technical death metal with cosmic and lush atmospheres, ANCIENT DEATH creates a unique soundscape of introspection and growth. The band was formed in the summer of 2019 by bassist/vocalist Jasmine Alexander, guitarist Ray Brouwer (Matriphagy), and guitarist/vocalist Jerry Witunsky (Atheist), soon followed by drummer Derek Malone Moniz (Cruciamentum, Churchburn). Through their Sacred Vessel EP in 2022, the single “Glowing Auras” in 2023 (a split with Putridarium), and their Demo 2024 releases, the band has continued to expand and push the envelope of honesty and vulnerability.

Experience the death metal supernova of ANCIENT DEATH’s Ego Dissolution early only on YouTube RIGHT HERE.

Now, ANCIENT DEATH’s debut full-length album Ego Dissolution arrives, showcasing the band at their most fierce and creative thus far, further expanding on the atmospheres and mindfulness of their inner and outer worlds. 

Ego Dissolution was recorded and mixed by Seth Manchester at Machines With Magnets (The Body, Lightning Bolt, Full Of Hell), mastered by Dan Lowndes at Resonance Sound (Leviathan, Krieg, Cruciamentum), and features cover art by Maegan LeMay (Morbosidad, Cirith Ungol, Iron Hand Tattoo).

The band states, “Ego Dissolution deals with the loss of oneself from positive and negative experiences. Our hope is to spread awareness of the connectivity between one another, embracing your individuality, and to let others know they aren’t alone.”

Ego Dissolution will arrive on LP, CD, and digital services this Friday, April 18th. Preorders for all formats and merch are live through Profound Lore HERE.

Following their release show for Ego Dissolution supporting Vastum and Goetia, ANCIENT DEATH is booking additional live dates in support of the album, including a mid-Summer tour and more to be announced shortly.
