What is your favorite song off your upcoming record?
"'Splayed Mudscape'."
Why's it your favorite?
"Because it's eerie, heavy and straight up Immolation worship. "
Why was it a single?
"The first single 'The Beckoning Bell' is a story within itself and an overall amalgamation of all our skills, quirks and musical interests and the perfect attention grabbing song off the album. Whereas 'Splayed', although weird in its own rights, it's more straight to the point death metal. It's visceral, miserable and for me, my favourite drum beat to perform alongside."
