New England-based extreme thrash machine is set to return with eight new tracks of relentless aggression and technical precision.

The band's forthcoming self-titled album, their second full-length and first under the Skepsis Recordings banner, is the end result of more than a decade sharpening their steel in the New England underground. Culling from a classic trash foundation while firmly rooted in a more extreme and technically proficient attack, GRAVITON offers fans an onslaught of aural violence.

This is not a nostalgia trip or an attempt to recreate the glory days of American thrash. Graviton is unbridled energy and a decade of blood and sweat encapsulated into the band's most focused and lethal effort to date.

The band has shared the album's first single, "Dissent into Madness."

 

 

“'Dissent Into Madness' is a song written from sitting in a basement during The Pandemic watching the world tear itself apart in real-time from a phone screen, and feeling unbelievably alone and hopeless while ruminating if we’ll collectively be able to meet the moment for any sort of future," comments drummer and lyricist Apollo Medagila. "The jury’s still out but at least we still get to frantically shred about it.”

Graviton is due out November 13 on digital, vinyl, CD and cassette format via Skepsis Recordings. Pre-orders for the limited-edition, Empire Gold vinyl variant are available at skepsisrecordings.com.

Digital and CD pre-orders are coming soon to skepsisrecordings.bandcamp.com

Since 2015 GRAVITON has been lurking around the New England Metal scene bringing an extreme brand of Thrash Metal to stages all across the region. With a soul and attitude rooted in the classics of heavy music but coupled with an eye to the future, the band weaves a modern web of ferocity and technicality that puts them at home on any stage with a crowd hungry to move. Having carefully honed their craft over the course of three releases and countless hours on stage, GRAVITON looks to break into a larger world with their self-titled label debut under Skepsis Recordings.
