Still revelling in the wake of their ravenously received DVD spectacle
“Majesty”, which is still charting on Canadian Top Music Video’s and
recently spent five weeks on the BILLBOARD TOP MUSIC VIDEOS Chart,
Michigan (USA) based oddball sons of molten melodic death metal The Black Dahlia
Murder return stronger than ever with their fourth thrashing opus, “Deflorate”!
Classical-come-apocalyptic; violently energetic yet melodiously beautiful,
“Deflorate” sees the song writing of band leader and rhythm guitarist Brian
Eschbach at its most developed and refined, exponentially complimented by
contributions from both bass savant Bart Williams and newcomer
guitarist/shred lord Ryan Knight (ex – Arsis), whose leads are destined to
dazzle fans and take the band’s punishing potency to dramatic new heights.
Combined with the intense performances of uniquely charismatic
howler/growler Trevor Strnad and rising extreme drumming star Shannon Lucas,
the cannon of talent possessed by The Black Dahlia Murder is more stacked to
destroy than ever! Multiplying the strengths of their past catalogue with a
reborn urgency and focus, the BDM crew forge steadily down the blackened
path they laid with 2007’s stunningly dark “Nocturnal”. With pedal
completely to the metal, “Deflorate” boasts the bands patented mixture of
Swedish influenced thrash and black metal with blasting fury and crushing
American muscle.
Recorded at the famed Audio Hammer Studios by production wizard Jason Suecof
and engineering talent Mark Lewis, “Deflorate” is multifaceted death trip:
beautiful, evil, and morbidly addicting. The Black Dahlia Murder has not
surrendered their knack for writing compact, catchy death metal madness, and
“Deflorate” is by no means an exception to the bands rule of ‘all killer and
no filler’… no punches are pulled, no gravestone is left unturned!
DEFLORATE will be released on Sep. 15/09.
