CARNAGE GATHERS (2025)
Nearly 3 years after the release of their debut full-length PERSECUTION OF THE LIVING, Grave Infestation return with their follow up CARNAGE GATHERS. Returning to work with Invictus Productions for this release and teaming up this time with Dark Descent Records, the album was recorded and mixed with engineer Greg Wilkinson at the infamous Earhammer Studios, producing a vile record that is a sonic push forward. Eight tracks and 40-minutes of violent, unrelenting death metal: the fast parts are faster, the slow parts are slower and everything is just plain nastier. Grave Infestation continues to pull influences from the likes of AUTOPSY, GRAVE, NIHILIST, REPULSION, and ABHORRENCE and mould them into a sound that is their own. Combined with Misanthropic Art Illustration’s ominous artwork, this release will be sure to stay glued to your turntable.
BAND BIO
GRAVE INFESTATION pulled itself out of the Pacific NorthWest’s primordial decay in 2018 with the release of their first offering INFESTICIDE with Invictus Productions and Parasitic Records. Originally formed as a 3-piece, the band expanded to a 4-piece with the release of their follow up, INFESTATION OF ROTTING DEATH. Since then GRAVE INFESTATION has spread their relentless aural filth and toured throughout Canada, USA, Mexico, Japan and Europe. Having released their debut full length in 2022 once again with Invictus Productions and two additional split 7”s with Me Saco Un Ojo and Carbonized Records, the band is poised to unleash their sophomore full-length album CARNAGE GATHERS this spring through Invictus Productions in conjunction with Dark Descent Records. Pulling influences from the likes of AUTOPSY, GRAVE, NIHILIST, REPULSION and ABHORRENCE the band continues its frantic death metal assault supported by the most dedicated metal maniacs. Live, the band delivers an unrelenting set with no reprieve between songs and a disgusting display of primitive death. 2025 will see GRAVE INFESTATION tour Europe for the first time with fellow Canadians, Quebec City’s SEDIMENTUM. A strong recommendation that you don’t miss either band when they pass through your hallowed grounds.
