The absolute audio defilement of Costa Rica’s spite-storm ASTRIFEROUS return with their undoubtedly ugliest cinematic sophomore record “Atavistic Unraveling”.
Like a ceremonial ascend into the realm of cosmically-fueled Lovecraftian riffs, “Atavistic Unraveling” whispers a boundless singular nightmare so profound and riveting it’s almost transcendental in nature. Dissonant and crushingly cacophonous Death Metal is smeared all over the record but “Atavistic Unraveling” also signals a form of entanglement between the Otherworldly and the primal inquisitive essence of mankind.
Recorded at 3/4 Estudios (Corpus Necromanthum) by Andrés Corrales with mixing duties by Andrew Oswald at Paradise Recorders (Mortiferum, Caustic Wound, Triumvir Foul, etc). Mastered by Dan Lowndes at Resonance Sound Studio (Cruciamentum, Absu, Of Feather And Bone, etc). Cover artwork by Mexican illustrator Necrodevourer (Spite, Infinite Misery, Volvodynia, etc).
Formed sometime in 2018, ASTRIFEROUS recorded two demos in 2019 and 2020 but very quickly got to work on “The Lower Levels Of Sentience” EP as well.
ASTRIFEROUS features members from Bloodsoaked Necrovoid and Umbra Conscientia.
Band logo done by Yuri Kahan (Trepanation, ex-Funebrarum, Extraneous, etc).
