Àðõèâ íîâîñòåé | Ðóññêàÿ âåðñèÿ
Ashes Of A New Dawn” is the latest single from technical death metal architects, Psycroptic. The track, and accompanying video, comes off the band’s new full-length, The Pulse Of Annihilation, released on Friday, July 17th on Metal Blade Records.
Comments bassist Todd Stern, “Loooooove this song. It’s the type of song that gives you imagery as you listen. Slow, melty intro… next thing you know you have to run for your life. Great moments of intensity, all in good fun. It’s aggressive as fuck but it’s also like a party song! Highly recommended.”
Adds vocalist Jason Peppiatt, “Lyrically, this song is kind of a sequel to ‘Ashes Of Our Empire’ off the Divine Council album but musically it’s a total Joe Haley riff fest!”
Across The Pulse Of Annihilation, Psycroptic sounds focused, disciplined, and fully aware of their trajectory. Complexity remains foundational, but it is now guided by compositional restraint and veteran confidence. With this release, the band reaffirm their status not merely as technical death metal stalwarts, but as architects actively shaping its future, proving that mastery, sharpened by time, only grows more lethal.
