There will be a digital single issued prior to the album’s release date, with an exclusive “B-side” bonus track / alternate version of the song “Vermes” featuring guest vocalist from HELLBOMB!
This is an album full of Timeless Death Metal classics- ODEM’s sound is both Technical and melodic, all conveyed in an absolutely smothering atmosphere of brutality! “Timeless Past Above“ is enshrouded in art by Matt Lombard, best known for his work with Cradle of Filth, and will be released as Digi CD with 8-page booklet and Digital, both to include a bull-dozer bonus track cover of the IMMOLATION classic “A Glorious Epoch”! When ODEM illuminate you with their sound, you shall experience transcendence, as they allow you to enter their underground temple of Black Death Metal perfection!
A Glorious Epoch awaits those who embrace ODEM’s Descendance, bringing you truth through the ashes of a new creation!
PRESS:
"Odem leads the pack with its unique blackened influences and a blend of aggressive and semi-technical Death Metal, with elements of modern brutality as well. Their sound is innovative in ways that American bands are often loath to do.” – No Clean Singing
“ODEM have an exceptional sound and this band has the potential to take the Metal world by storm.” – Metal-Temple
“Technical, but not to the point of ruining the songs, it’s truly the melding of the precision riffs with slight atmosphere that give Odem their seal of approval.” – Dead Rhetoric
“It’s as if someone has distilled the essence of Black Metal, created a foul-smelling tincture and upon consuming immediately vomited forth Odem’s style of Death Metal.” – Wonderbox Metal

For nearly 25 years now, PALE DIVINE have been perfecting the proto-doom sound - rooted in the '70s, particularly Pentagram and Ozzy-era Black Sabbath but also Sir Lord Baltimore, Leafhound, and even very early Judas Priest - but predating so many cloying pretenders ever since. Not for them is this just another trendy bandwagon to jump on; PALE DIVINE truly LIVE this music. The public's tastes may be fickle, but diehards know and love the name PALE DIVINE. And for very good reason: albums like 2001's Thunder Perfect Mind and 2004's Eternity Revealed are considered classics of the genre, carrying the torch of '80s forebears like Saint Vitus and Trouble, and keeping that flame burning whatever the cost.
The more things change, the more they stay the same sometimes, and there stands PALE DIVINE, tall and proud. In 2018, you're not gonna find a better, more rockin' and more pure DOOM album than Pale Divine!

Long-awaited third album! Although it's been five years since PERDITION TEMPLE's second album - 2015's The Tempter's Victorious, released by then-new label home HELLS HEADBANGERS - this seemingly interminable span between albums is par for the course for this band, for the year 2010 saw the release of the band's debut album, Edict of the Antichrist Elect. Back then, PERDITION TEMPLE began as something of a solo endeavor for scene veteran Gene Palubicki, co-founder of the legendary Angelcorpse. As years passed by and a second PERDITION TEMPLE album took shape, Palubicki assembled an elite cade of new members for The Tempter's Victorious, including his old Angelcorpse guitar foil Bill Taylor and, on vocals, Black Witchery's intimidating Impurath. While live assaults ensued with that lineup - with drummer Ron Parmer as the backbone, concurrently of Amon and Brutality - alas, more changes took shape in the TEMPLE and Palubicki has welcomed to the fold none other than bassist Alex Blume, a longtime member of Ares Kingdom and also Palubicki's bandmate in BLASPHEMIC CRUELTY.
Originally digitally released during September 2020, Psicomoro proves PERVERSOR are as restless 'n' wild as ever. Forever committed to the hellish climes of South American black/death madness, here across 15 filthy 'n' furious minutes, the quartet cantankerously rip apart "blackthrash" conventions with a gibbering bestiality that could only come from the cult-metal cauldron of Chile. In fact, very little has changed in PERVERSOR's worldview, and they're all the better for it: one track detonates after another, with the band seemingly locked into a state of violent possession, each scabrous riff and vocal vomit summoned from a sulfurous pit far beyond the purview of mankind. If anything, Psicomoro is the sound of PERVERSOR at their clearest and most crushing, the richly full-bodied production only heightening their trademark violence that much more.
As always, PERVERSOR elevate themselves beyond the mongrel hordes with a firm commitment to the METAL aspect of their black/death madness, thrashing forth with a memorability rooted in the '80s ways. Now finally available physically, Psicomoro is a timely, all-too-short reminder of that ever-enduring madness!
