- Finest U.S. technical Death Metal for fans of Death, Suffocation or Cynic!!! Mixed by Zack Ohren (Suffocation, Immolation, All Shall Perish). Artwork by cult artist Dan Seagrave (MORBID ANGEL, SUFFOCATION, ENTOMBED, etc.) [!]
Santa Cruz CA’s tech-death masters Decrepit Birth were formed in 2001 by Matt Sotelo - guitars, Bill Robinson - vocals and Derek Boyer – bass (SUFFOCATION). Originally formed with the intention to play brutal technical death metal, mixed with influences from the early 1990’s Florida death metal scene, the band has since evolved into a progressive yet crushing entity. The group has released two highly influential albums on Unique Leader Records, “…And Time Begins” and “Diminishing Between Worlds”, while doing several high profile tours such as Summer Slaughter.
Now, DECREPIT BIRTH have returned with their third album! After years in the underground, one of the genres leaders the band have created their Magnum Opus. Self proclaimed as “death metal from the soul”, vocalist Bill Robinson spews forth his heady spiritual and philosophical concepts while a barrage of dizzying riffs fill the speakers. The stellar production by Zack Ohren (ALL SHALL PERISH, SUFFOCATION, IMMOLATION) and guitarist Matt Sotelo, along with stunning artwork by cult artist Dan Seagrave (MORBID ANGEL, SUFFOCATION, ENTOMBED, etc.), make Polarity the yard stick by which all other releases in the genre should be judged.
