Unravel Announce Debut Record, 'Eras Of Forfeit'

The new Unravel is tough as fuck!

Mixing together elements of death metal, hardcore, grind and crossover has been Unravel's rather effective forte for a while now. But now the brutal Perth outfit are about to take their heavy sound to it's darkest extremes with the recent announcement of their upcoming debut record, 'Eras Of Forfeit', which will drop like a warhead of punishing riffs in April through local Australian label, Life.Lair.Regret. Records.

The eerily titled 'Eras of Forfeit' is set to be 11 new tracks of hard-hitting, noisy death metal from the WA group with "socio-political commentary considering the higher costs of everything that humanity takes for granted and takes advantage of in this world", as the band and label put it. Tracked by Cameron Murphy over at Opaque Audio, with mixing done by Taylor Young at The Pit Recording Studio and then mastered by Brad Boatright at AUDIOSIEGE, this new full-length release delves into the concept that humanity takes advantage of everything on this Earth and the higher the thing we take for granted in this world, the higher the very real cost it will come at in the end. Cheery.

But look, even if you don't really care for the worldly topics and wider questions that this band asks on their forthcoming record, you'll still have plenty of sick riffs, vicious blast beats, hellish vocals and mental beatdowns to lap up and mosh to once it arrives.
