Midwest death machine CASKETROBBERY has posted the official music video for their newest single, “The Lacryphagist.” The song marks the band’s first new material since their 2022 album, Rituals of Death.
Vocalist Megan Orvold–Scheider comments on the song, “I had so much fun writing for ‘The Lacryphagist’. When we decided it was finally time to sit down and begin writing for the next release, we came up with a really awesome concept and this is a really cool piece of the puzzle. Initially, I got inspired by the stories of Victorian tear vials and I loved the idea of this creature that feeds off of human tears and collects them in various states of emotion. We were able to put in some really grotesque imagery into both the lyrics and the video we shot. I think this single shows our natural next progression as a band and our writing; lyrically getting darker while staying true to our tongue-in-cheek horror vibes that we have so much fun with. We cannot wait to hear what you all think of ‘The Lacryphagist.’”
CASKET ROBBERY is celebrating the release of “The Lacryphagist” with an exclusive giveaway for their legions of fans. To enter the “Take Their Eyes” giveaway, fans need to submit a photo of their eyeballs, which will be used in the next CASKETROBBERY video. The winner will receive a Lacryphagist T-shirt, a signed flag, and the prop eyeballs used in “The Lacryphagist” music video, along with two tickets and meet & greet passes to an upcoming CASKET ROBBERY show.

Madison, Wisconsin Death Metallers CASKET ROBBERY will release its full-length debut album Evolution of Evil March 4 on Mortal Music. CASKET ROBBERY is an up and coming Death Metal band created by the minds of Cory Scheider (LUNA MORTIS, EPICUREAN, ECHOTERRA) and Dustin Foesch.
New Noise Magazine has premiered the official video for the album’s opening track, “Annibelle’s Hell,” which can be viewed at this location.
Metal evokes deep emotions from elation to introspection to revulsion On the long-awaited follow-up to the band’s 2011 self-titled EP, CASKET ROBBERY runs the gamut, all the while burrowing its titanic sound deep into one’s psyche. The songs are at once pulverizing and memorable. Evolution of Evil is nothing short of pulse-pounding, unrelenting, and brutally catchy Death Metal.
Indeed, the undeniable grooves and hooks coupled with conceptual lyrics make CASKET ROBBERY the Death Metal band to watch in 2016. Take a deep breath. Your unrelenting nightmare has just begun. Highly recommended for fans of JUNGLE ROT, GOJIRA, and PANTERA.
Evolution of Evilpre-order packages are available through Bandcamp. The CD can also be ordered from Big Cartel.
CASKET ROBBERY have firmly established themselves as a brutal, heavy hitter in the live show realm by hitting the road hard after their first EP release. Last year they took the time to re-evaluate and plan a devastating debut album release for 2016. They quickly brought in Greg Mueller to fill the drum spot and they brought on their own Cory Scheider to track, engineer, and produce a majority of Evolution of Evil.
The track “Pray for Death” features a solo from John Laux (WARBRINGER) and “Undead Living Hell” features a guest speaking role by horror filmmaker Cory Udler. With the help of Chris Wisco (NOVEMBERS DOOM, JUNGLE ROT) to mix the album and Cody Ratley (VILLAINS, DARKE COMPLEX) to master it, this will truly be a must-have album for 2016.
