ANNOUNCED
Ossuary: Wisconsin-based death metal trio formed in 2015, known for a filthy, slow-burn sound blending doom-laden riffs with intense, cavernous atmosphere. Featuring Izzi Plunkett, Matt Jacobs, and Nick Johnson, the band has released EPs like Cremation Ritual (2015) and Supreme Degradation (2019), later releasing their debut full-length Abhorrent Worship. Dead Void has worked in obscurity under the surface for nearly a decade, crafting their unique sound from their own obscure blueprint, eschewing norms and creating Death Metal at its darkest and most heavy and weird. Following a many-times reprinted and sold out demo tape in 2018, the band’s debut album, Volatile Forms, was released in 2022 on Dark Descent Records and Me Saco un Ojo Records, quickly making an impact in the underground press with its unique, unrestrained and unpredictable sound. Diabolic Oath was begotten in Portland, Oregon in late 2017 by the will of The Temple and of Ominous Void. Almost immediately, Cthonian Incursor was summoned to join, providing blasphemous vitriol and unholy thunderous percussion. The trio soon recorded the first offering, “MMXVIII”, and began the first incursions of unforgettably bleak and bludgeoning live rituals. Soon after, the band began writing new material which coalesced to become their mind-bending and flesh-battering first full-length album, “Profane Death Exodus” released in 2020 by Sentient Ruin. To make this album it was decided early on to implement the unique and unorthodox approach of fretless bass and guitar instruments combined with a triple vocal attack delivered by all members of the group, often simultaneously, to harness something unseen and unheard of before then in extreme metal, and completely ungovernable and unhinged. With influences coming from surrealistic extreme metal beasts like Antediluvian, Altarage, Portal and Impetuous Ritual, Minneapolis MN dark death metal obscurators Aberration debuted via Sentient Ruin with their self-titled 2021 debut 10" EP, an aural pact with total darkness that established them as one of the most imaginative and intimidating new entities in American underground extreme metal. No newcomers to game, Aberration formed in late 2019 with JH of Void Rot on guitar and vocals, DH of Suffering Hour on bass and vocals, AW of Nothingness on guitar, and EC of Tvaer on drums and threw the sum of their talents and influences into an obfuscating sonic glorification of total darkness and oblivion, combining death, doom, dissonant black metal and tenebrous ambient/drone to create an imposing aural hellscape of all-devouring terror. Their surrealistic interpretation of dark abstract death metal will find its absolute triumph and sublimation with “Refracture”, the band’s debut full-length album for Sentient Ruin, released in 2024.
