Edit: unbeknownst to me, everything I said below was old information/wrong. See other comments. Anton wrote most of the guitar parts and basic song structures for the new album before he officially left in 2016. They said he will still contribute to future albums but is focusing on his family and not touring.
Mikael actually wrote the whole album. Anton and Mikael had written an album but Mikael scrapped it after Anton left so what your hearing is actually all Mikael. He clarified this on FB last night on Justin McKinney's page.
Hakeem Alexander speaking of sinister ever heard of Sinister or even Master, Monstrosity, Desecravity, Anata, Pestilence? Desecravity drummer is fuckin insane espicially on Orphic Signs.
Holy fuck....the wait was so worth it, the new guitarist nails it he's is amazing, the vocals are even stronger on this one and don't even get me started on the drums because it's sick. Well mates.
The book was opened...and heaviness thusly ensued. Bangest thou heads, mosheth in thine pit and.....oh fuck it, destroy shit cuz this is the soundtrack to do so.
Nothing. It's just surprising since it's out of their wheelhouse for the most part. I for one am so hyped because this will help bring Soreption to the states more
UT, sandwiched between CO and AZ misses all the good metal bands. Hopefully I can catch y'all next tour! You make awesome music! Reminds me of Aeon except with way better lyrics. Thanks for making great music!
Ok so I'm not really a tech death guy, Prog and mellow-death is more my metal style, but I guess now I get to make an exception because I am digging the hell out of this album.
Sounds like this is going to be a solid album! I'm doubtful the solos will be as good as Anton's though, he wrote some of my favorite solos in tech death.
This is the only band that's come close to old school Decapitated, you're right. The slicing riffs, only other band on that level is Necrophagist in my opinion.
So what does this mean? since Sumerian signed you, the next summer slaughter is going to be good? meaning Sumerian will have better heavier bands now since they pretty much own the lineup of The summer slaughter tour?
I have to admit that i feel pretty weird Soreption being on Summerian Rooster... But this song is fucking nuts as always. Thanks Soreption, the wait finally is fucking over!!! 😍😍
Curious why Soreption left Unique Leader, wonder if they felt they weren't being promoted well enough. They definitely deserved more recognition for Engineering the Void but I'm glad I got to see them on the Devastation on the Nation tour while Anton was still with the band.
