Background information about 'Omnipresent'

Origin delivers another crushing blow to the technical death metal scene with "Omnipresent", a relentless 13-track assault that showcases the band's trademark precision and brutality. The Kansas-based quartet, led by the inhuman drumming of John Longstreth and the razor-sharp vocals of Jason Keyser, crafts an album that feels like being caught in a mechanical storm of blast beats and surgical riffing. Tracks like "All Things Dead" and "Manifest Desolate" demonstrate the band's ability to balance technical prowess with memorable songwriting, while the brief interludes such as "Thrall:Fulcrum:Apex" provide momentary breathing space before the next wave of sonic devastation hits.

The production, handled by Robert Rebeck at Chapman Studios and mastered by Colin Marston at Thousand Caves, gives every instrument crystal-clear definition despite the chaotic nature of the compositions. "The Absurdity Of What I Am" and "Malthusian Collapse" stand out as prime examples of how Origin can make complexity feel effortless, with Paul Ryan's guitar work weaving intricate patterns around Mike Flores' thunderous bass lines. The inclusion of the S.O.D. cover "Kill Yourself" as a bonus track adds a punk edge that surprisingly complements the album's overall intensity.
