Amputate announce new album ‘Abysmal Ascent’

AMPUTATE have announced a new album!

Titled Abysmal Ascent, the upcoming album from the Swiss death metal band is the follow-up to 2022’s Dawn Of Annihilation, and is scheduled to be released in October this year, via Massacre Records.

For the new album, the band recorded straight from their amps (no re-amping) and the vocals were recorded as direct and natural as possible. “It sounds awesome, very true and not overproduced,” says guitarist and vocalist Nuno Santos. “Pure honest death metal, the old school way. We just don’t like this artificially sounding plastic metal kind of thing, so we hope you like our little true death metal production!”

Alongside the announcement of the new album, the band have released a new song lifted from the upcoming album; the title track Abysmal Ascent. The new song features a guest appearance from Barbara ‘Babs’ Brawand of CALADMOR.

Speaking about the new song, the band says it’s “a song about the rise of unstoppable forces of evil upon this world, with nothing less than pure hate for all mankind, with biblical damnation proportions and apocalyptic total obliteration.”
