Dying Fetus will release its new album, “Make Them Beg for Death,” on Sept. 8, 2023, via Relapse Records. Watch the “Feast of Ashes” video, directed by Blvckbox Studios, below.
Recorded in Baltimore with longtime producer Steve Wright and mixed by Mark Lewis (Cannibal Corpse), “Make Them Beg For Death” is Dying Fetus’s ninth album. Pre-order/pre-save the record here.
“It follows on from where ‘Wrong One to Fu*k With’ left off,” drummer Trey Williams said. “We don’t need to participate in the technical death metal arms race. We’ve got the big guns, and we’ve proven that. It’s all about pointing them in the right direction, so to speak.”
“We put our own twist on death metal,” said co-vocalist/guitarist John Gallagher, “We were like most bands, starting in the garage, drinking beer, having a little fun on the weekend, finding the right amps through trial and error. We blended aspects of bands we liked–Suffocation, Obituary, Deicide and Cannibal Corpse, among others; the dual vocal approach of Carcass–and made them our own. ‘Let’s make it moshy, let’s make it slammy.’”
“The philosophy is the same now as it was when the band started,” Gallagher continued, “To write catchy riffs and to make it memorable. Whatever style of music you’re doing, make it something people want to hear repeatedly.”
