Undeath announce their “biggest, baddest, nastiest” album ever
Undeath are releasing a “f*cking sick death metal record for sick death metal freaks” in October – hear lead single Brandish The Blade now…
Following 2022 breakout second album It’s Time… To Rise From The Grave, Undeath have just announced record number three.
The New York death metal faves will release upcoming LP More Insane on October 4 via Prosthetic Records, and they promise that it’s the “biggest, baddest, nastiest Undeath record yet by every conceivable metric”.
Going into rather a lot more detail, the band continue: “It’s a fucking sick death metal record for sick death metal freaks and anyone out there who can appreciate the transcendent power of a good riff played fast on distorted electric guitars. No bullshit whatsoever – not even for a second. 10 tracks of death metal earworms crafted by five guys who shower just irregularly enough to invoke the spirits of the death metal ancient ones.
“Follow me on this one for a sec: in weightlifting terms, if our last record, It’s Time… To Rise From The Grave was our cut cycle record, where we trimmed the fat and honed things down to the raw essentials, More Insane is us entering our bulk cycle, where we built a big, filthy record on top of a canvas of pure death metal muscle. We co-produced it with Mark Lewis, who engineered, mixed and mastered the whole thing and made the best sounding album we’ve ever made. It’ll sound absolutely killer on literally anything you play it on, and it’ll sound even better if you turn it way the fuck up.
“There’s songs about advancing armies of the undead, demonic bounty hunters, homicide, perverse experiments gone horribly awry, dead people screaming and crying tears of blood, homicide (again), and so much more. Matt [Browning, drums] painted the cover art and this marks the end of the trilogy of paintings starting back with Lesions Of A Different Kind, where we’ve zoomed out far enough now to reveal that the entire fucked up universe of these covers has taken place entirely within the collapsed and bursting skull of a rotting godhead floating in a soulless void.
“To put a bow on it all: More Insane is the sickest shit we’ve ever done, full stop. Death metal reigns supreme forever and we are but its humble servants. Enjoy and smoke ’em if you’ve got ’em.”
