Considered by many as the fathers of deathcore, Despised Icon posted a teaser picture on their social media with just one word; “TOMORROW”, getting all the attention all over the scene.
The day has arrived. We’re getting a new full-length album, more specifically their sixth one after more than six years since “Purgatory”. “Shadow Work” , as the band states:
– Lyrically, “Shadow Work” explores themes of resilience and inner healing, drawing inspiration from the psychological process of confronting and integrating one’s darker aspects. It’s a deeply introspective record that reflects both personal growth and the turbulence of the world around us.
Founded in Montreal back in 2002, the canadians did stablished a path for the upcoming bands from the genre, being one of the pioneer bands that took that beatdown-ish sound and took it to a more technical and personal way with their “Consumed by your poison”, released on that same year.
Shadow Work will come out on October 31st via Nuclear Blast Records, so until then, let’s wait if we get some hint of what this new album will be.
