Vocalist Twan van Geel states: "In my book, 'In the Very Time That Will Rot Us' touches upon Soulburn's essence. This track digs up some old roots, just before the album sneaks into its grand finale. Eric's signature riffing at the end very much inspired me while writing the lyrics. The brain always works best with riffs that simply and solidly rock!"

Guitarist Eric Daniels adds: "This powerful song is highly evocative! I just love as to how Twan's lyrical vision turns this track into an authentic and exciting Soulburn banger."

Behind the fifth SOULBURN album lies a long journey that never followed a straightforward road but travelled through many dimensions and took hidden paths. Yet the Dutch metal extremists have undeniably reached a dark and beautiful peak. Built upon a solid foundation of death metal, "Quantifying Cosmic Doom" seamlessly adds walls of melancholy that are chiselled out of doom bedrock and crowns towering riffs with the fierce and spiritual flames of black metal. A wide range of musical variability as well as the masterful storytelling that runs like a golden thread through the epic songs give SOULBURN away as experienced veterans who are utterly confident and passionate about their extreme craft.

With "Quantifying Cosmic Doom", SOULBURN renew the dark pact with their loyal following of delivering extreme and harsh metal that always pushes to new frontiers while staying true to its core values of black, death, and doom.
