Like a hulking black mass of putrid industrial waste, death metal solo act Altar of Gore returns from the grimiest corners of New Jersey to deliver its latest single, “Destined for the Pit.” Featured on the upcoming album Litanies Of The Unceasing Agonies, this track is an extremely gnarly brain-basher set to harsh your good day.
Unlike most contemporary death metal acts that tend to write for speed, fury, and bombast, this track does the opposite. From the moment you hit play, the song remains mid-tempo for the entire six minutes or so that it assaults your ear drums.
According to the band’s mastermind The Acolyte Of The Foul Ones, this new track resembles a new avenue of attack for Altar of Gore.
“‘Destined For The Pit’ is a bit of a departure from previous songs, based around one of the most boneheaded midtempo riffs I have ever written. The sound of someone kicking your ass and loving every minute of it.”
If you’re expecting something with high production values or any extra frills found on other death metal releases, you’re not going to find those here. This track is all about the urge to bludgeon your skull in with as much blunt force a song can push forward.
The album was recorded at Studio D-10, New Brunswick, New Jersey, engineered and mixed by TG, and mastered by Dan Lowndes at Resonance Sound (Krieg, Drawn & Quartered, Witch Vomit), the album completed with artwork by Taylor Smith (Coven ‘Zine).
Litanies Of The Unceasing Agonies will be released on May 17 via Nameless Grave Records, but you can preorder your copy today.
