NEWS: Psycroptic enter an apocalyptic wasteland?

As we all know, Tasmanian Technical Death Metal Kings Psycroptic will be releasing their first album in partnership with Metal Blade Records on 17th July in “The Pulse Of Annihilation“. From that impending new record comes second single “No Blade Of Grass” alongside a music video that may take you back to ancient Egypt as the band prepare for shows in Australia and Japan with Americans Rivers Of Nihil in August.

Guitarist Joe Haley: “This one has a good blend of old-school PSYCROPTIC-style riffage and slightly sludge filled, loosey-goosey sections straight outta the classic death metal era. The whole thing is brought together with the choral/orchestral chorus. Something for everyone! Going to be a fun one to rip live!”

Bassist Todd Stern: “It‘s an unbelievably catchy tune! The main verse is one of my favorite bits on the whole record. Classic riffage, steam rolling the whole song forward with solid momentum all along. Badass.”
Vocalist Jason Peppiatt: “I had so much fun with this song as it was the first song that [vocalist Jason] Keyser had written for the band and it was awesome to have someone bring different ideas to the table than what I normally would. Vocally it‘s nice and fast and has a real sick flow and groove to vocal parts.”
