Experimental death/grind abomination DEFIGUREMENT, formed by current/former members of Fear Factory, Malignancy, Raven, Bad Acid Trip, Murder Construct, Lack Of Interest, Rottenness, and countless more, will release their facemelting debut album, Endbryo, through Nefarious Industries in October.

DEFIGUREMENT encompasses a cast of life-long henchmen from across the metal/extreme music underground; an experimental grindcore project featuring drummer Mike Heller (Malignancy, Raven, ex-Fear Factory), guitarist Kevin Fetus (Lack Of Interest, Fetus Eaters, ex-Murder Construct), bassist/noise architect DMT (Mormon Mincers, ex-Bad Acid Trip), and vocalist Matthias Joyce aka “Matti Güey” (Rottenness, To Violently Vomit, Formless Master).

The debut album from this decimating collective, Endbryo arrives with sixteen tracks of sheer intensity; A unified creation born of sci-fi death metal infiltrated by hyperactive overtones of gore, grind, prog, and experimentalism.

Ludicrous, grinding blasts jacked-up on interstellar strains of both melody and scathe, ludicrous putridity bursting to shed its skin, hammering percussion with fretwork and vocals working triple-time to keep up. As uncanny, unhinged, and bizarre as it undoubtedly is, Endbryo flows seamlessly into an inimitable hybrid of extreme tech death that can only be described as pure DEFIGUREMENT.

Nefarious Industries will release Endbryo on limited runs of LP, CD, and MC on October 17th. Find preorders where the “Wounded Landscape” single and “Godtopsy” video are playing RIGHT HERE.

Endbryo was recorded DIY by the band at multiple facilities, mixed by Rob Caldwell (Cannibal Corpse, Municipal Waste, Devourment), mastered by Lasse Lammert (Sigh, Kublai Khan, The Atlas Moth), with artwork by Kevin Fetus.

The album is drenched in guest contributions, including Takafumi Matsubara (Gridlink, Mortalized), Makiko Suda (Flagitious Idiosyncrasy In The Dilapidation, Monnier), Brian Hopp (Cephalic Carnage), Kevin Alter (Deathwish, Invidiosus), Crawlin Lewis (King Goro, Formless Master, Invidiosus), Karl Schmidt (Gorgatron, Visceral Disgorge), Leon Del Muerte (Impaled, Terrorizer LA, ex-Exhumed, ex-Nails, ex-Intronaut), Alec Cordero (Black Hole Deity, Calcemia), Ryan Wright (Necropathy), Leonard “Lenzig” Leal (Cephalic Carnage, Neuromorphic), and Matt Olson.
