ANTROPOFAGO Release “Helter Skelter” Digital Single; Includes SEPULTURA Cover
September 10, 2015, 9 years ago
French death metallers Antropofago have just released a brand new digital single for "Helter Skelter”, taken from the band's latest full-length, Æra Dementiæ. The single includes a bonus cover version of Sepultura's classic "Arise”, which has been part of the Antropofago's live set for quite some time now. "Helter Skelter" is available for free download at this location.
Four years after their debut full-length, Beyond Phobia, Antropofago further explore the depths of human psychosis with Æra Dementiæ, a dementia-based concept album that continues the chilling look into phobia that was its predecessor. The album sees Antropofago reach new levels of technical prowess, production and artistic maturity.
Still as diverse in its approach of technical death metal, the new material is marked with well-placed doses of brutality and addictive choruses to make Æra Dementiæ the breakthrough album for Antropofago. Featuring a special guest solo by Nicolas Alberny (Gorod) and guest vocals by label-mates Laurent Chambe (Nephren-Ka), Aara (ex-Savage Annihilation), Benoit Jean (ex-Insain) and other surprise contributors, the album is full of hidden little gems and the over-the-top musicianship.
With the first pressing limited to 500 copies, Kaotoxin Records released the album on August 14th as a deluxe DigiSleeve double CD featuring an expanded version of the band's 2012 Between Fear And Madness EP. Further physical and digital editions were released on the same day as two separate releases, with Æra Dementiæ and Between Fear and Madness [Redux] sold individually.
