Skeletal Remains Unleash Brutal New Album “The Entombment of Chaos”
California-based death metal outfit Skeletal Remains has once again proven why they are a force to be reckoned with in the extreme metal scene with the release of their latest studio album, “The Entombment of Chaos.” The band’s fourth full-length offering, which dropped on September 11, 2020, via Century Media Records, has been met with critical acclaim and has solidified Skeletal Remains’ status as one of the most exciting acts in modern death metal.
“The Entombment of Chaos” is a relentless onslaught of blistering riffs, thunderous drums, and guttural vocals that showcase Skeletal Remains at the peak of their creative powers. The album is a masterclass in old-school death metal, drawing influence from classic bands like Death, Obituary, and Morbid Angel while injecting their own modern twist into the mix. Songs like “Illusive Divinity,” “Congregation of Flesh,” and “Torturous Ways to Obliteration” are prime examples of the band’s ability to craft savage, yet memorable, death metal anthems that will surely incite chaos in the pit.
In a recent interview, guitarist Mike De La O discussed the creative process behind “The Entombment of Chaos,” stating, “We really wanted to push ourselves to write the heaviest and most intense material we could come up with. We drew inspiration from the classic death metal bands that we grew up listening to, but we also wanted to incorporate our own unique sound into the mix. The end result is an album that we are incredibly proud of, and we can’t wait for our fans to hear it.”
The band also enlisted the talents of acclaimed artist Dan Seagrave to create the stunning cover artwork for “The Entombment of Chaos,” further adding to the album’s visual impact. Seagrave, known for his work with bands like Morbid Angel, Entombed, and Suffocation, perfectly captured the dark and twisted essence of Skeletal Remains’ music with his intricate and macabre artwork.
To support the release of the album, Skeletal Remains had planned an extensive touring schedule that included appearances at major metal festivals and headline shows across the globe. However, due to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, many of these plans have been put on hold or canceled. Despite the challenges posed by the current situation, the band remains optimistic about the future and is eager to hit the stage as soon as it is safe to do so.
Fans of Skeletal Remains can also look forward to exclusive merchandise and limited edition vinyl variants of “The Entombment of Chaos,” which are available for purchase through the band’s official website and various online retailers. Additionally, the band has been actively engaging with their fans on social media, sharing behind-the-scenes glimpses into the making of the album and interacting with listeners from around the world.
As Skeletal Remains continue to garner praise for their uncompromising approach to death metal and their unwavering dedication to their craft, “The Entombment of Chaos” stands as a testament to the band’s relentless pursuit of sonic brutality and artistic excellence. With this latest offering, Skeletal Remains have once again proven that they are a force to be reckoned with in the metal underground, and their future in the scene looks brighter than ever.
