Nuclear Blast recording artists Exmortus mark their much-anticipated return on new album, Necrophony. The Los Angeles-based neo-classical metallers are fiercerthan ever, with singles Oathbreaker and Mind of Metal forging metal might with Viennese (think: Beethoven) sophistication. “We wanted everything on this album to be a fresh take of what we envisioned Exmortus to be,” says guitarist/vocalist Jadran ‘Conan’ Gonzalez, who’s flanked by specialists Phillip Nuñez (bass), Chase Becker (guitars), and Adrian Aguilar (drums). “We had a lot of time to reflect during the pandemic. This new material is rebirth of our approach to writing and performing our music.” Founded in 2002, Exmortus have released five acclaimed studio albums; both Ride Forth (2016) and The Sound of Steel (2018) hit the Top 20 on Billboard’s Heatseeker and Hard Music charts. The group have toured extensively with Amon Amarth, Children Of Bodom, and played high-profile gigs at NAMM and 70000 Tons of Metal. New album Necrophony is Exmortus bigger and badder. Now signed with powerhouse label Nuclear Blast Records, EXMORTUS enters the next phase of their career, armed with their best record yet due to infiltrate the metal masses sometime in 2023.
