After several years of gestation, THÆTAS returns with an auditory statement for this moment in time, the new LP The Irredeemable Age out June 26th through Profound Lore Records.
The four-piece THÆTAS hails from the New York City region, consisting of drummer Nick Crifo, guitarists Terrell Grannum (Reeking Aura, Buckshot Facelift, Squelching Flesh) and Patrick Hawkins (Asystole, Needlepusher, Kyrios, Aberrated), and vocalist/bassist Cory Peterson (37564 Recordings).
The long-awaited follow-up to their 2020 Maggot Stomp-released Shrines To Absurdity debut, The Irredeemable Age shows THÆTAS both refining and intensifying the brutal death metal approach while deepening their explorations into the bizarre, the uncharted, and the avant-garde. The result is a dynamic mosaic of obsessively dark, organic, off-kilter, and kinetic death metal, devastating the listener with nine tracks in barely thirty minutes.
The Irredeemable Age was tracked independently then mixed and mastered by the inimitable Colin Marston (Krallice, Gorguts, Pyrrhon) and completed with cover art by Jon Zig.
With the album’s lead single, “For The Hope Devoid,” Peterson reveals, “It’s about a sinking feeling coming over more and more people that something has gone horribly wrong and the confusion they experience trying to figure out what it is and how they missed it all this time.”
Hawkins adds, “We’re thrilled to share ‘For the Hope Devoid’ as our lead single from the new record. This song includes some pieces that were written before THÆTAS was even a band, but in bringing this to life for the record we’ve added new textures and taken it places that we’ve never gone before. In other words, the song has everything you’d expect from a classic THÆTAS track, our roots and our influences are on full display here, but I think this song also shows a real evolution for us and serves as a great intro to The Irredeemable Age.”
Deploy THÆTAS’ decimating “For The Hope Devoid” everywhere including YouTube HERE, Bandcamp HERE, and other points HERE.
The Irredeemable Age will be released on LP, CD, and digital formats on June 26th. Preorders can be placed at Profound Lore HERE.
Additional previews of the album will be dispatched as its release date draws near. THÆTAS performs across the greater New York City region with regularity and is currently plotting a release show for the album and more.
