Progressive death metal unit, Destroying The Devoid, which features Craig Peters of Deeds Of Flesh and formerly Arkaik, will unleash its debut full-length via Unique Leader Records on August 19th, 2016. Titled Paramnesia, the seven-track offering was engineered and produced by Craig Peters at Carnivale Nocturno Studios with all mixing and mastering handled by Zack Ohren (Deeds of Flesh, Arkaik, Suffocation) at Castle Ultimate Productions.
 
"Society is constantly plagued by a world telling them what it is to be beautiful, successful. and what they essentially need to 'be happy,' while taking advantage of the weak for their own selfish benefit," Peters says. "Paramnesia, while not a concept album, plays off of different themes related to perception and how we are effected by the world around us. The three-part song 'Beyond The Dark Veil' also deals with the emotional effect of death from three different perspectives."

Destroying The Devoid was forged in 2014 by Peters as an outlet to compose material beyond the traditional confines of technical death metal. "The song writing started back in the Summer of 2012," relays Peters, "At first it just began as a couple of songs that eventually evolved over time. Being a huge fan of orchestral music and film scores I definitely wanted the music to have a deep and emotional impact. These songs are dark, aggressive and very thematic. While at the music's core has a very progressive death metal sound, the songs flow in and out of many stylistic changes ranging from blackened death metal to more melancholic and ethereal passages and some very intense instrumental sections that will leave your head spinning."
