Vacuous - Katabasis (Sentient Ruin Edition 2023)

Originally released by FHED in 2021 Vacuous' debut EP Katabasis has now been re-pressed by US label Sentient Ruin. If you missed out first time around now is your chance. You should take it. These guys have more or less single-handedly reanimated the corpse of UK Death Metal. Few records come as highly recommended as this.

"Vacuous' monstrous debut mini-album "Katabasis" sees a vinyl reissue via Sentient Ruin after its limited first pressing sold out shortly after its original 2021 release. With this release the London, UK-based death horde refined its dismal and pulverizing dark death metal sound, using influences from bands like Incantation, Immolation, and Autopsy to forge an unseen weapon of sonic terror. "Katabasis" immediately established Vacuous as a rising unholy force in UK underground extreme metal, securing the band a cult following in their home country and eventually a debut full-length release deal via Dark Descent Records and Me Saco Un Ojo."
