Hardcore-tinged thrashers Extinction A.D. have announced their fourth full-length album. Titled To The Detested, the effort is slated for released via Unique Leader Records on August 16th. Ray Marte handled tracking, mixing, and mastering at Westfall Recording Company. Pre-orders are now available on physical and digital formats at this location and this one, respectively.
Additionally, the group have released a music video for the record’s lead single “Impervious (Unrepentent)”, which features a guest spot from Trivium frontman Matthew Kiichi Heafy. The clip was filmed and edited by Pieter Van Den Berg, with additional filming by Jazel at Blackcard Films. On the track, the band share:
“‘Impervious’ is another exercise for us in stretching ourselves. Embracing some different tempos, instrumentation and inclusion of guest vocals with Matt Heafy. Working with Matt for the track as well as the video was very gratifying and lot of fun. He’s been a big supporter of the band since the jump so it was rad to get together for some music after all this time.
Time moves on but things sometimes seem to sink further and further into a festering pit in this world. Humans are steadily losing their humanity in the current state of things, so finding a way to survive without becoming a monster yourself is becoming increasingly difficult.”
