Avant-Garde Death Metal duo, Ingurgitating Oblivion, will release long-awaited new album, Ontology of Nought, September 27 on CD, gatefold 2x12" vinyl, cassette, and digital formats via Willowtip Records.
No Clean Singing has premiered the first single, Part I of 18-minute closing track, "The barren earth oozes blood, and shakes and moans, to drink her children's gore." No Clean Singing will premiere Part II on August 23 and Part III on September 11. Click the link that follows to stream Part I now!
Part I will be available on all platforms tomorrow, July 26. Album pre-orders will be available on the same day.
Unsurprisingly, considering the band's acclaimed body of work to date, this is no run-of-the-mill Tech-Death album. The talented duo of guitarist and engineer Norbert Müller and vocalist, guitarist, and composer Florian Engelke have outdone themselves again on Ontology of Nought! Epic-length tracks ranging from 10 to 18 minutes fuse into a cohesive whole that awes with the band's characteristic technical flare and progressive, compositional brilliance. The impressive cast of session and guest musicians adds even more vibrancy. Hearing is believing.
Though it has been seven years since the last Willowtip release, Vision Wallows in Symphonies of Light, the forthcoming opus unequivocally demonstrates that the wait has been well worth it!
"You have fully delineated the subject of a universe of finiteness and change as well as the knowledge derived therefrom // Why should you be despondent in spite of all this, thinking that you are undone?"
- Ingurgitating Oblivion
The band released the following statement about the new album:
“Ontology of Nought is the result of approximately five years of incessant work. It documents whatever has been instilled into Ingurgitating Oblivion and the two minds pulling the strings behind the scenes: Norbert Müller and Florian Engelke. Trying to pinpoint some trite conceptual undercurrent would be to defile the beauty of creation. It feels alienating to us talking about our music and lyrics, as these stem from dichotomic dynamics of meticulous planning on the one hand and perfect intuition on the other. In like manner, the lyrics cannot be explained further here, but listeners are invited to do some work themselves and take a plunge into what could potentially encapsulate the world or denote nothing at all. Musically, we just do our own thing, celebrating our Death Metal heroes, more progressive Rock, jazz, folk, classical music. We do not strive to stand for any particular brand, but we simply enjoy being torn down the torrent of haphazard ideas, premonitions, and visions.
And that’s that."
Track Listing:
1. Uncreation's whirring loom you ply with crippled fingers
2. To weave the tapestry of nought
3. The blossoms of your tomorrow shall unfold in my heart
4. Lest I should perish with travel, effete and weary, as my knees refuse to bear me thither
5. The barren earth oozes blood, and shakes and moans, to drink her children's gore
