Description

Imagine a creature laying dormant beneath the earth, in an inhuman slumber since a time long forgotten. This creature reawakens, cracks up through the ground and finds a world it barely recognizes. Chaos, disorder, brutality, bloodthirst and terror are all around. Seeking to restore some sense of order to its surroundings, the creature adopts the destructive nature it witnesses in man and begins a vengeful quest for power.

Mythology, fable and metaphor collide with »Beast«, a blistering new album marking the return of DESPISED ICON. The genre-defining band is fully reawakened, poised to recapture the crown with the monstrous and merciless might of their potent expression. Featuring the men responsible for most of the band’s now classic death metal catalog, »Beast« is a vicious commentary on the state of the world and the state of music itself.

‘The Aftermath’ kicks off the album with brutal immediacy, encompassing the full scope of what’s ahead with unrelenting attack and classic death metal flair. ‘Inner Demons’ will have guitar teachers and drum instructors pulling their hair out in frustrated angst, while songs like ‘Bad Vibes’ put the impossible sounding shred workouts on the backburner in favor of brute force. Throughout the album, deep grooves reminiscent of the best of OBITUARY, DYING FETUS, INTERNAL BLEEDING, or even BIOHAZARD pulse within the fierce aggression. There’s melody to be found in songs like the French-language ‘Drapeau Noir.’ The dual vocal style DESPISED ICON fans love is as unrestrained as ever.
