About the album

Retromorphosis' debut album "Psalmus Mortis" emerges as a vital force in the technical death metal arena. The band, rising from the ashes of the legendary Spawn Of Possession, delivers a masterclass in extreme metal innovation. With Jonas Bryssling at the helm, along with Dennis Röndum on vocals and Erlend Caspersen on bass, the lineup is fortified by Christian Muenzner's guitar prowess and KC Howard's dynamic drumming. This album is an intricate tapestry of blistering riffs and warped time signatures. Tracks like "Vanished" and "The Tree" meld brutal rhythms with cosmic horror themes, making for a compelling listen that challenges and excites.

Rooted deeply in the foundation laid by their predecessor band, Retromorphosis pushes boundaries further into uncharted territories of death metal. The lyrical themes explore dystopian narratives and existential dread, while musically, there's a seamless blend of aggressive technicality and melodic interludes. The combination of relentless speed and precision with thematic depth ensures "Psalmus Mortis" is not only an auditory assault but also an intellectual exploration for fans of sophisticated metal.
