With their mastery of technicality, unrelenting aggression, intricate compositions, and lyrical exploration of ancient Egyptian mythology, Nile continues to captivate audiences with their unparalleled sonic assault. About Cryptopsy Website | Facebook | Instagram | YouTube Cryptopsy is an influential extreme metal band from Montreal, Quebec, Canada. For over 20 years, they have sculpted and pushed the boundaries of their metal genre. About The Last Ten Seconds of Life Website | Facebook | Instagram | YouTube | Spotify | Apple Music THE LAST TEN SECONDS OF LIFE was forged in 2010. Within a year, they were touring regularly and had self-released their debut album, Know Your Exits. By 2013, independent metal label Density Records unleashed their second album, Invivo [Exvivo]. Further touring ensued with the likes of I Declare War, Fit For An Autopsy, Thy Art Is Murder, and Kublai Khan. The prolific act would go on to release five more full-lengths, each earning Billboard chart placements and reaping critical accolades both stateside and abroad. Of the band’s most recent output, 2024′s No Name Graves (Unique Leader Records), Knotfest wrote, “THE LAST TEN SECONDS OF LIFE are reasserting their position as innovators and leaders in the deathcore genre. Their approach to music is not just about creating sound but about crafting an experience that challenges and captivates their audience.” New Transcendence concurred, “With moments defined by a low, moody atmosphere carefully peppered with punishing aggression and moments that are outright raunchy, ruthless oblivion, No Name Graves is a cinematic, crushing experience that redefines THE LAST TEN SECONDS OF LIFE, making it clear that lightning can strike the same place (or same band) twice.” Added No Clean Singing, “At its gnarliest and nastiest – as epitomised by the likes of the brutish, bone-grinding title-track and the apocalyptically heavy ‘Broken Glass Incantation’ – there’s a there’s a primal intensity and potent, primitive nihilism to these tracks which recalls the likes of Black Tongue, latter-day Acranius, and even the more post-deathcore leaning approach of Humanity’s Last Breath, but stripped down even further until only the barest and most unforgiving essentials remain.” About Cognitive Website | Facebook | Instagram | Spotify | Apple Music Cognitive, the New Jersey-based technical death metal quintet, returns with Abhorrence, their fifth full-length album and a brutal successor to 2021’s Malevolent Thoughts of a Hastened Extinction. Known for their unrelenting riffs and intense lyricism, the band crafted Abhorrence while touring, exchanging tracks between gigs. As they hit the road in 2024 to showcase their latest work, Cognitive continues to evolve while staying true to the crushing sound that has defined them for over a decade. Abhorrence serves as both a commentary on a chaotic world and a refreshing yet punishing listening experience.
