Incite announce new album ‘Wake Up Dead’

INCITE have announced a new album!

Titled Wake Up Dead, the upcoming album from the Arizona-based groove metal band is the follow-up to 2019’s Built To Destroy, and is scheduled to be released in March this year, via their new home at Atomic Fire Records.

Speaking about the band, Atomic Fire Records CEO and founder Markus Wosgien says, “when Dez Fafara, singer of DEVILDRIVER and manager of acts like CRADLE OF FILTH, JINJER and 8 KALACAS, introduced us the new material of INCITE, we were simply blown away! Those five new tracks simply were the shit! Each track was super catchy, straight forward and massively brutal and aggressive. I couldn’t believe that I missed this incredible band over all these years and had a new mission: The metal world needs to know about INCITE and how great they are. So the idea starts to grow to not only do an EP, but also add the best of their old tracks, remaster them and demonstrate what INCITE is about. This new release is one of the best modern thrash metal releases of all time. This is both fresh, unique and still somehow old-school as fuck. Fronted by Richie Cavalera, this bands has an amazing singer with a serious history and well known parents. Check them out, you all will love them.”

The upcoming album intends to deliver the goods in the most relentless way. With recording duties again handled by legendary producer Steve Evetts (Richie: “The only guy who can simultaneously record THE CURE and SUICIDE SILENCE and pull it off”) in Omen Room Studios just outside Los Angeles, the album intends to show a band that couldn’t be more comfortable with the place they’re in right now.

Speaking about the upcoming album, vocalist Richie Cavalera says, “metalheads, we’ve held back this beast long enough! It’s time! We’ve re-worked the team, we’ve added more heavy metal, and couldn’t be more fired up! Our new album Wake Up Dead will drop with MinusHead/Atomic Fire Records for the first time ever! This album is exactly what the metal worlds needs to kick off 2022 heavy AF!”
