Hailing from California, the esoteric technical death metallers Decrepit Birth are set to release their first new album in seven years, Axis Mundi, on July 21st via Agonia Records (Europe / rest of the world) and Nuclear Blast Records (North America). "Epigenic Triplicity" is the first single to be revealed from the record. Listen to the track in the form of a 360 VR lyric video right now and share your impressions.




"We've gone through an evolution throughout the years," says founding member and primary songwriter Matt Sotelo. "The last couple of albums we had, Diminishing Between Worlds and Polarity, were more progressive death metal. They were different from ?And Time Begins, which is a different genre of death metal. It's more brutal. I'm the type of guy who likes to experiment. ?And Time Begins has no solos. It's all really fast palm-muted riffs. The other albums breathed more with the guitars. I let chords ring out on Diminishing Between Worlds and Polarity. Axis Mundi is combination of all the stuff I'm into. I like it a lot right now. It's more melodic. The riffs repeat intentionally. I want to have fun with these songs."
