VALLENFYRE Unleash "An Apathetic Grave" Lyric Video

Crusty death/doom outfit, Vallenfyre, has set June 2nd as the release date for its third album, Fear Those Who Fear Him, via Century Media Records.

The band has just revealed the lyric video for "An Apathetic Grave". "This one is an extremely miserable, crushing doom song about a man reaching the end of his life and reflecting on the futility of it all," says Vallenfyre.

Recorded by the band’s new core lineup consisting of Gregor Mackintosh (vocals and guitar), Hamish Glencross (guitar and bass) and Waltteri Väyrynen (drums), Fear Those Who Fear Him was once again produced by Kurt Ballou (Converge, Nails) at GodCity Studio in Salem, MA and mastered by Brad Boatright (Obituary, Beastmilk, YOB) at Audiosiege Mastering in Portland, OR.

The cover artwork was created by Hal Rotter (rottinggraphics.com).

Greg Mackintosh comments: “Most bands refine their sound over the first two or three albums. Becoming more technically adept and honing their craft. Vallenfyre have done almost exactly the opposite. We have devolved, made things simpler and crush most of the melody under swathes of rotting noise. From A Fragile King to Splinters and now to Fear Those Who Fear Him, we have become more savage, more raw and less compromising!”

Fear Those Who Fear Him will be released as Gatefold LP+CD on limited coloured and regular black 180 gram vinyl, as Special Edition Digipak (international version), Jewelcase CD (Canada, US, Mexico only) and on all digital / streaming platforms.

Fear Those Who Fear Him is available in the following vinyl colours and limitations:

Transparent red – 100 copies / exclusive to CMDistro Europe (Sold Out)
White – 200 copies / last few copies available at CMDistro Europe.
Silver – 300 copies / available at CMDistro North America.

The tracklisting of this 39-minute long aural atrocity reads as follows:

“Born To Decay”
“Messiah”
“Degeneration”
“An Apathetic Grave”
“Nihilist”
“Amongst The Filth”
“Kill All Your Masters”
“The Merciless Tide”

Inspired by the likes of Hellhammer/Celtic Frost, Autopsy, Antisect, Discharge, Nihilist/Entombed, early Napalm Death, early Bathory, and Conflict, Vallenfyre have forged a trademark sound between rotting death metal driven by a chainsaw like guitar sound, filthy doses of crust and early grind as well as crushing, depraved doom.

Watch the video for “Kill All Your Masters” below:

Onstage, Vallenfyre perform as a quintet with live members Sam Kelly-Wallace (rhythm guitar) and Chris Casket (bass) completing the lineup. Catch Vallenfyre live on July 6th at In Flammen Open Air in Torgau, Germany.
