Ohio death metal greats Necrot have announced their anticipated third album, Lifeless Birth, due out on April 12 via Tankcrimes. They made it with producer Greg Wilkinson, and it was mastered by Brad Boatright. See the cover art and tracklist below.
“The last few years have been tough for us and pretty much for everyone,” Necrot bassist and vocalist Luca Indrio says. “The result is Lifeless Birth, our most aggressive album so far, but at the same time also the most melodic. We have always been progressing as a band and I think this is our full maturity stage. We have been Necrot for thirteen years now, we work hard to continue doing what we do, and we have sacrificed a lot to it. We want to give our contribution to what metal is and will be, we don’t want to just pass by unnoticed. We want to live our mark and so far, Lifeless Birth is without doubt our best effort.”
The first single is “Cut the Cord,” which you can hear below. The song “talks about how our minds are contaminated by a constant flow of negative information fed to us on a daily basis,” Luca says. “People have their heads buried in their phones, constantly eating from a plate full of shit ,and the awful future we all didn’t want is now our present. A superficial society of people scared of each other. ‘Cut The Cord’ is a call to disconnect and refuse to live in fear, disengaging from what is making us miserable and starting to perceive life for what one believes and not the distorted and often fake reality that is constantly presented to us in many forms. It’s time to cut the cord.”
Necrot will be on on tour with Municipal Waste, Ghoul, and Dead Heat beginning this month, including an NYC show at Brooklyn Monarch on February 17. Tickets are on sale now, and you can see all dates below.
