Immolation - Descent (Indie Exclusive Edition Transparent Red/Black Marbled Vinyl) LP
With “Descent”, Immolation reaffirm their status as one of the most uncompromising and forward-thinking forces in death metal. After a career spanning nearly four decades, the New York pioneers return with their 12th studio album, delivering a work that is both ferocious and deeply refined, unmistakably Immolation, yet constantly evolving.
From the first ominous moments, Descent radiates menace. Twisted, dissonant guitar riffs coil and strike with surgical precision, while thunderous drums and cavernous bass create a suffocating foundation. Ross Dolan’s unmistakable vocals roar with authority, sounding as commanding and venomous as ever. The album thrives on tension, using complex rhythms, abrupt turns and eerie atmospheres to keep the listener in a constant state of unease.
Rather than relying on nostalgia, Descent stands firmly in the present. Immolation continue to push their signature sound forward, balancing brutal aggression with their unique sense of structure and darkness. Each track unfolds like a ritual, dense, oppressive and meticulously crafted, proving that the band’s creative fire burns just as fiercely as it did decades ago.
Thematically, Descent explores darkness, chaos and the decay of humanity, perfectly mirrored by the album’s hostile sonic landscape. This is death metal that demands attention, rewarding repeated listens with new layers of detail and intensity.
This Indie Exclusive Transparent Red/Black Marbled Vinyl edition adds a striking visual counterpart to the album’s grim atmosphere. A must-have for longtime Immolation devotees and death metal fans who appreciate depth, intelligence and unrelenting brutality.
