caggac IMO the most underrated death metal release of 2022. This rips so hard the dudes on the cover art don't have faces. Favorite track: Innards of Divinity.

gwcon2006 Excellent DM! Plain and simple.

fullbongo Bloody Razor-Sharp Black Mass Death Worship Vocal Sermon delivered in Triple-Six-Dimensional, Sinister-Stringed Axe-Thrashing Through Maddening Mind-Melting Leads, Beaten and kept in line through Bruised Skins under Thunderous Battery Torment. My Kind Of Ass-Beating from Beginning To End. Favorite track: Abyssal.

jumpkicktotheface Swirl in the aggression, your trajectory has been pre-ordained.
So it is, the impossibility of free will. Favorite track: Defecated Spirit.

Dave Death (aka. EvilDave213) Another slab of dirty, unholy, crusty Death Metal. I love everything about it. Total and utter filth. UGGH!! Favorite track: Abyssal.

Rotted Mood Stoked for this. I hear Utopia Banished era Napalm influences in Abyssal, which make me happy as hell

about

Pre-orders for CD / LP / TAPE in August.

Acephalix wakes from five years in morbid repose with a new offering upon the glistening altar of flesh, a devastatingly tormented study on ‘Theothanatology’, the idea or belief that God is dead. Within this cerebrum shattering inquiry lies, as always, a primal spewing forth of vicious Death Metal malignity and bombraid hardcore dispersions.

Across a decade and a half lifespan the evolution of Acephalix into the bludgeoning instrument of discord and dead faith displayed on ’Theothanatology’ has never felt so urgent. The crumbling siege-like mentality of modern life leaves no doubt God has left the building and Acephalix adeptly soundtrack the contradictions, atrocity and inner turmoil of such massive loss and decay.

From the opening title track to closer ‘Atheonomist’ Acephalix is razor-focused on its greatest strengths, commanding the unambiguous sonic pulverizing of a bulldozer over the decimated skull pile of a once thriving civilization. Simultaneously more musically complex and savagely barbaric, ‘Theothanatology’ heralds a collapse already in motion.
