Cryptic Shift release new song ‘Cryogenically Frozen’

CRYPTIC SHIFT have released their brand new single, Cryogenically Frozen!

The track comes from the UK progressive death metallers’ upcoming full-length Overspace & Supertime, which is set to drop on February 27th via Metal Blade Records.

Speaking about the new song, vocalist/guitarist Alexander Bradley shares, “contrasting the prolonged, cinematic opening of our previous album [Visitations From Enceladus] Cryogenically Frozen wastes no time by bursting into a flurry of jazz fusion-esque movements as if metal had an alternate timeline progressing from the lineage of masters like CYNIC, PESTILENCE, and ALLAN HOLDSWORTH, whilst still remaining true to our death/thrashing tendencies with lightning riffs tailor-made for the headbangers and circle pitters! Simultaneously, all aspects of our songwriting propel our new character, The Recaller, through her sci-fi adventures, beginning with a cybertronic shootout and meditations in dreams and consciousness. Being one of the shorter songs on the album defined by a pulsing verse and chorus, it ends with a moment of calm before the true centerpiece of Overspace & Supertime begins with the 29-minute Stratocumulus Evergaol which we can’t wait for all Astrodeath freaks to explore on the February 27th.”
