German death metal band Defeated Sanity have long been known as one of the most consistent bands of the genre. Usually releasing an album every 3-4 years or so, the time has indeed come for a new DS record. The Sanguinary Impetus will be released on July 24th via Willowtip Records, and you can get the first taste of the band’s first new record in 4 years with “Propelled Into Sacrilege” below. Whether you’re a tried and true Defeated Sanity fan or are new to the veteran act, this is a solid introduction.
The Sanguinary Impetus is perhaps the ultimate expression of DEFEATED SANITY’s signature blend of the brutal with the technical, performed in a manner largely unparalleled in the world of extreme metal. At once comfortably recognizable and awe-inspiring, the forthcoming album is sure to be a lock for many year-end lists. Sickening riff crunch, hammering beats, and technical wizardry combine to create a level of sonic violence that won’t soon be forgotten.
The band had this to say about the new album:
“With “THE SANGUINARY IMPETUS” we have created our most complex album to date. We had strayed pretty far from our style musically with “Disposal of the Dead/Dharmata” and felt a strong urge to pick up where we left off with “Passages Into Deformity” and expand on the trademark DS sound.”
