“The end doesn’t happen in a day, the end is the rest of our lives.”

“Stretched Paradox” is the latest song from New York’s avant/slam crew THÆTAS, previewing their second album, The Irredeemable Age, nearing release through Profound Lore Records.

Based in the New York City region, THÆTAS unities 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).

After several years of gestation, THÆTAS returns with an auditory statement for this moment in time, 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.

The Irredeemable Age will be released on LP, CD, and digital formats on June 26th. Preorders can be placed at Profound Lore alongside the “For The Hope Devoid” single HERE.

THÆTAS is booking new shows around the area in support of the record, with a new record release show booked in late-August confirmed, and shows into New England and more being booked for the Fall.
