Disguised Malignance announce debut album ‘Entering The Gateways’

DISGUISED MALIGNANCE have announced their debut album!

Titled Entering The Gateways, the upcoming album from the Finnish death metal band is their debut full-length album and is scheduled to be released in September this year, via their new home at Prosthetic Records.

Speaking about the upcoming debut album, vocalist Felix Pennanen says, Entering The Gateways‘ songwriting approach combined with lyrical concepts and overall aesthetic form an entirety that evolves throughout the album’s runtime. First, the listener is absorbed into the hellish & twisted landscapes known from 90s death metal, surrounded with existential dread and nihilistic thoughts. As the album progresses, these landscapes and concepts start to evolve, while new ideas are introduced to the music. I think we achieved a great balance between banger riffs and otherworldly atmospheres. Self-producing the album allowed us to make this entirety as close to the vision in our heads as possible. From the way each instrument sounds to the colossal and atmospheric synth soundscapes, the freedom to tweak these things ourselves really added a significant amount of depth to this debut album.”

Bassist Aatos Palmu adds, “we are inspired by a wide variety of different kinds of music, and I think it can be felt and heard in DISGUISED MALIGNANCE. All of those influences together with our own artistic visions form a distinct sound and vibe. This album lays the groundwork for the “DISGUISED MALIGNANCE sound” which we always aim to achieve and evolve when writing music.”

Alongside the announcement of the debut album, the band have released a new song from the upcoming debut; Malignant Visions.
