Official press release:
New Haven, Connecticut progressive death metal legion Xenosis set out from their formation in 2010 with a precise goal in mind: To create death metal that blurs the lines, that draws from the past and present equally, and to continually evolve as a band from release to release. To date, they’ve lived up to that aim, and have continued to up the ante with each new musical effort put forth.
In 2015, the group’s sophomore full-length, Sowing The Seeds Of Destruction was released to critical praise and cemented the groups status as a notable progressive death metal act worth paying attention to. Now just a few years later, Xenosis is proud to announce their forthcoming third full-length, Devour And Birth. Set for official release on January, 19th, 2018.
Xenosis cite influences as diverse as: Death, Meshuggah, Morbid Angel, Suffocation, Voivod, Emperor, Atheist, Opeth (Lopez years), Dillinger Escape Plan, Testament, Obituary, Gojira, Textures, Snarky Puppy, Metallica (80’s era).
Given the eclectic style of progressive death metal that Xenosis plays, this list of influences serves as a guide of sorts that the music on Devour And Birth does not fit neatly inside one mold or style of death metal.
Devour And Birth track listing:
1. “Night Hag”
2. “Army of Darkness”
3. “Delirium (Death Of A God)”
4. “Concave”
5. “Oxidation”
6. “Ominous Opus”
7. “Devour and Birth”
8. “The Projector”
