“Verminous,”kicks off this seminal record for metal, with a blazing saddle of fire and rage. It turns from one echelon to another, slowly bringing about chaos and destruction.

“Godlessly,” snarls and crackles with pulsating rage. The riffs are filled with darkness and the vocals bring about everything that one might imagine the devil would want to say.

“Removal Of The Oaken Stake,” comes in like a battering ram, demolishing anything and everything in its pathway until the listener is left desperate for more.

“Child Of Night,” slams down hard and brims with chaos and energy. A song that is sure to be well received when performed live.

“Sunless Empire,” crackles with energy. A song that is sure to develop into an anthem when performed live, it truly shines through and brings about a great convocation.

“The Leather Apron’s Scorn,” snarls from the get go. A song that is sure to push the boundaries of light and dark for a good long time.

“How Very Dead,” is sinister. That opening riff walks like the devil itself. A song that combines elements of passion and power and pure evil together to bring about something completely terrifying.

“The Wereworm’s Feast,” is dark and foreboding. That opening guitar shred takes the listener to whole new place, and ensures that the creeping factor slowly imbues itself within them.

“A Womb In Dark Chrysalis,” is a hauntingly beautiful acoustic piece.

“Dawn of Rats,” snarls about the place, whipping everyone and everything into a frenzy.

The album is out on 17th April via Metal Blade Records
