ROTTED LIFE RECORDS is proud to present VRENTH's highly anticipated second album, Succumb to Chaos, on CD, cassette, and eventually LP

It was but 2019 when southern California's VRENTH burst upon the scene with their debut demo. However, VRENTH's birth was a fully formed one, as the band features a goldmine of death metal cachet, with the quintet's members concurrently hailing from such bands as Funebrarum, Ruin, Ascended Dead, Dead Conspiracy, and VoidCeremony among others. Baptism Death - the band's debut album the next year, courtesy of ROTTED LIFE - proved beyond a shadow of a doubt that pounding 'n' primitive death metal need not necessarily be "low-IQ" to trample all in its path.

And they continue to trample all in their path with their brand-new second album, Succumb to Chaos. Although the title seemingly implores as much, Succumb to Chaos unfurls a monolithic path full of slimy, tendrilous songwriting that's exceptionally linear and yet subtly twisted all the same; there's no randomness nor "riff salad" jerkoffs here. No, VRENTH are duly DEATH METAL for true death metal maniacs: all's housed within a hulking carapace of dread, doom, and disease, undoubtedly strewn with severed limbs and steaming innards at its core. Certainly, Succumb to Chaos keeps the "caveman" aspect loud 'n' proud, but guided by prolific drum-whirlwind Charlie Koryn, the execution equally exudes grime AND grace. Lockwelded to VRENTH's strongest songwriting to date, as well as everything tastefully blackened, Succumb to Chaos is a grand assertion of death metal traditionalism that isn't totally blinkered by the past.

"With Succumb to Chaos, the abyss of blackened death metal has come full circle," the band states. "The death machine is more precise, more focused, and even more deadly - heavier, faster, and even more crushing than the debut album. We are very proud of this monster. Even with the crazy schedules that everyone has with other bands and projects, we were able to get this beast done. THE EARTH SHALL REST IN ETERNAL CHAOS!!!"

Omnipresence (Mors Certa/Hora Incerta) by Vrenth

Crucial and absolutely essential death metal from this young Finnish death metal band, who play at a skill level leap years ahead of their age group. Monster riffs, twisting bass grooves, and sickening vocals, Malformed splits their time between urgent brutality and deep trenches of mid-paced chuggery, all of which feels legitimately ripped straight from 1992. Even released back then, it's safe to say Malformed would have found their way to the top. Some of the most exciting and indispensable death metal you'll hear all year.

Four years after the release of their celebrated debut “Dominion” Atlanta’s Cemetery Filth make their triumphant return with their brand new EP, “Senses of Detriment”. 
With frontwoman Maddie Kilpatrick as the sole original member, the line-up may have changed, but the band has only gotten stronger, ushering in a new era by taking the band’s sound to the next level with the addition of a more technical and formidable rhythm section in Tristan Payne (drums) and Evie Austin (bass).
Cemetery Filth pride themselves on their new advancements and continuing ability to craft a multitude of twisted riffs and highly memorable hooks without sacrificing an ounce of brutality and ruthless persistency. 
Death Metal bands are in abundance these days, but Cemetery Filth stay relevant and stand out with their formidable songwriting and performance.

Phobophilic - Undimensioned Identities (Rotted11)

North Dakota’s Phobophilic undoubtedly look to the past and present for inspiration, but Undimensioned Identities is a tilted and deranged enough variant of old school death metal, that it's clear the four piece is more focused on looking forward than backwards. Propelled by protean and corkscrewing riffs, the 4 tracks here are crafted with methodical precision, evoking majestic Lovecraftian horrors and creating cataclysmic maelstroms of madness and rot, while delivering a skillfully enunciated performance with a detailed production that never slips into the brackish sonic murk that's typical of newer bands schooled on the seminal Incantation sound.
Lmtd 150 copies on Pro-Ferric cassette
European version released through Blood Harvest Records

01. That Which Swallowed The Sun by Phobophilic

Worm infested death metal label and mailorder, spawned from the underground in 2018.
