Athiria released Conjure the Beast, a powerful return to the death metal scene, showcasing their resilience and innovative sound. The ten track album came out less than a month ago, on November 10th, courtesy to Kvlt und Kaos Productions. Now fronted by the dynamic vocalist Andy, the Austrian death metal band marked a significant comeback and opened a new chapter, following a challenging period.
However, on November 20th, the band released a visualizer for the song The Dissension. More to the point, prior to the album release, they dropped the official video for the single Retribution.
Formed in 2011, Athiria has grown from a passion project to a key player in the Austrian metal scene. The band gained recognition with albums like Capital Punishment and Vicious Circle. Therefore, it came as a natural thing to share stages with major acts like Cannibal Corpse and Suicide Silence.
The band faced a hiatus following the loss of their drummer and the impact of the pandemic. However, they have now returned stronger with Conjure the Beast, featuring a fresh lineup with Andy as the dynamic new lead vocalist. The album symbolizes Athiria‘s resilience and commitment to death metal. It offers a blend of raw energy, innovative compositions, and the unique dimension of female-fronted vocals.
Conjure the Beast is a proof to Athiria‘s evolution and their eagerness to reconnect with fans and the metal community.
