Modern UK Death Metallers INGESTED, have released their new ingle “From Hollow Words” featuring ABORTED’s Sven De Caluwé! The track comes with an official music video directed by Loki Films and is taken from the band’s forthcoming album “Ashes Lie Still”, out on November 4th via Metal Blade Records.
Vocalist Jason Evans, comments: “You ever know one of those pricks that constantly say they’ll do things differently, or say they’re sorry for fucking you about, but then they always just do the same things over and over again? Well, our new single is about those types of arseholes. “Allow us to present to you ‘From Hollow Words’, featuring our good friend Sven de Caluwé of Death Metal monsters ABORTED. We’ve wanted to work with Sven for a very long time and we couldn’t be happier to show you the result of INGESTED and ABORTED smashing heads!
This beast of a song is no-nonsense, heavy, aggressive, and is exactly what fans of both bands want to hear! The fast-paced, back and forth, call-and-response style delivery between myself and Sven keeps the energy up to max from start to finish and the blend of our styles compliment each other ferociously.”
Regarding the visual, he states: “As always, Loki Films provides the visuals and has done a fantastic job. So what are you waiting for? Stream the song, watch the video, and blast it until your neighbors are banging on your front door!”
Sven de Caluwé weighed in, saying: “Beyond stoked to have taken part in the new INGESTED record, I’ve known the guys for years now and we have toured together a few times; they’re a machine that just hits like a wrecking ball – not the pop type of ‘Wrecking Ball,’ mind you. This new record will turn many heads, I’m sure, and is their heaviest-sounding to date. Check it out and remember what Jack Burton always says: It’s all in the slams.”
INGESTED are the flagbearers of Modern UK Death Metal. They have been churning out bilious anti-anthems for more than a decade-and-a-half, dropping a string of releases that have helped shape the genre. They return with “Ashes Lie Still”, their most dynamic, inventive, and daring release to date, holding nothing back. The band describes it as “a modern essential. It still has the core Ingested elements of groovy slamming riffs, quick drumming, and guttural vocals but there’s also atmosphere, ethereal moments, and some raw old school aggression.”
Over the course of 10 tracks, INGESTED hack, slash, and steamroll through everything in their path, and “Ashes Lie Still” easily stands as the highpoint of an already impressive career.
Founded in 2006 in Manchester, England, INGESTED have since toured extensively with CANNIBAL CORPSE, THE BLACK DAHLIA MURDER, NILE, CARNIFEX, REVOCATION, and have been seen on European festival stages including Summer Breeze Open Air. The band earned Billboard chart entries in 2018 with their album “The Level Above Human,” and saw chart action again with their 2020 release “Where Only Gods May Tread“. Slimmed down to a three piece – comprising of drummer Lyn Jeffs, guitarist/backing vocalist Sean Hynes and vocalist Jason Evans – the band feel they are in the best place that they have ever been, enabling them to work at the top of their game.
INGESTED succinctly encapsulate their existence, saying: “We’ve always been the underdogs, always fighting for scraps. Well it’s time to get out of the fucking way, because now it’s our turn to eat at the table.”
