NEWS: Grave Hex announce “Domain of Foul Rebirths”!

After releasing their debut album “Vermian Death” via Night Terrors Records and Cavernous Records in 2025 Helsinki based Death Metal quartet Grave Hex not only toured Finland but also played  Rot in Peace Metal Fest and Helsinki Death Fest. Now they return with EP “Domain of Foul Rebirths“, a five track affair mastered by Greg Wilkinson (Autopsy, Necrot, Undergang) at Earhammer Studios in Oakland California. A 30th October release it’s been preceded by “Sewer Embalmment” recorded and mixed by the band’s own Matti Vainionpää.

The band comment: “When writing the material for ‘Domain of Foul Rebirths’ we stuck with the style that we established during the creation of our previous record ‘Vermian Death’ while taking the musical compositions and tonality to a more complex level. We used mostly the same musical gear than before but production-wise we took a new experimental approach and the result turned out simultaneously recognizable and more refined than before.

The central themes of ‘Domain of Foul Rebirths’ revolve around the bizarre and execrable methods of self-destruction and rebirth. Each song examines beings or entities reborn from foul or disgusting ways of torment; self-disembowelment, being eaten alive, esoteric surgery and other ways trying to reach postmortal change.

With ‘Sewer Embalmment’ we wanted to emphasize the gnarlier mid-tempo side of death metal, with a bit more hooks and groove than a lot of our other material. The lyrics on this piece explore the concept of combining ritualistic and medical techniques in pursuit of conclusive change. We feel that this song encompasses all of the musical ideas present on the EP in a single track“.
