Today we have the privilege of sharing an early stream of “Chaos Feasting” the first preview song taken from ‘Master’s Personae‘ the fourth full-length album from Yogyakarta, Indonesia-based death metal duo EXHUMATION. Active since the late 2000’s and forever entrenched in madly thrashing death-worship the band’ve perfected their eruptive, malicious form of classics surged and kicking death metal on this fourth album. Our focus today is upon the Side A pusher, the momentum stoking ramp of “Chaos Feasting” a weaponized and inward piercing piece which showcases both the thrust applied to this album and the room they give their bigger movements to breathe and extend their impact. The last third of the song does a fine job of this opening up into dreadful, fatalistic chorale as the piece ends on an unreal note. Without question ‘Master’s Personae’ is one of my most anticipated releases to talk about this year and rightfully should be one of yours after you’ve heard this song, go check it out before the album releases in late April.

Thanks goes out to EXHUMATION, Pulverised Records and their representation for the opportunity to share this song a bit early.

EXHUMATION – “Master’s Personae”
Label: Pulverised Records
Release date: 26.04.2024
Formats: CD / LP / Digital

A year of vanquishing darkness is upon the enigmatic Yogyakarta/Indonesia based savages EXHUMATION as they inaugurate their fourth transcendental full-length “Master’s Personae”!
With a forlorn howl of a meandering beast, the entire record breathes an animosity between atmospheric solace and Death Metal carnage impassioned by a blaze of unending fire. “Master’s Personae” is enshrouded in a sublime traversal of musical perturbance but the megalithic depths which EXHUMATION possess is undoubtedly an immutable stare into the embodiment of supreme sordid verve of Metal of Death.

This sonic debauchery includes a slew of guests featuring members of Possession, Impiety, ZOM and Obliteration. It was mixed by Bable Sagala at Watchtower Studio and mastered by Jack Control at Enormous Door Mastering (Aura Noir, Darkthrone, Bastard Priest, Frozen Soul, etc). The cover artwork was created by José Gabriel Alegría Sabogal (Cult Of Fire, Dysangelium, Slægt, Whoredom Rife, etc) and additional artwork by Daniele Valeriani (Candlemass, Dark Funeral, Mayhem, etc).

• Formed in 2008, EXHUMATION garnered very positive attention everywhere with the band’s sophomore record “Opus Death” released in 2014.
• “Master’s Personae” marks the band’s fourth full-length album and also their 16th-year existence.
• Guests/session musicians on “Master’s Personae” include Sindre Solem of Obliteration, S. Iblis of Possession, Shyaithan of Impiety, SABBAC of ZOM, and Bable Sagala of Watchtower Studio.
• For fans of early Morbid Angel, Obliteration, Bölzer & putrid Death Metal!
