Upper Darby, PA. (Top40 Charts/ Relapse Records) Loudwire is hosting an exclusive new track here (https://loudwire.com/ulcerate-weight-of-emptiness-exclusive-song-premiere/) from Vermis, the pending new album from Auckland, New Zealand's death metal innovators, Ulcerate. The fourth of the album's nine cataclysmic hymns, the volatile "Weight Of Emptiness" is its lengthiest, inundating the listener with over seven-and-a-half minutes of purely contorted, dissonant and suffocating death metal, the track slowly swelling, building, breathing, and eventually exploding, rushing the listener like a pyroclastic flow - an inescapable scorching demise of unimaginable power - ultimately resulting in one of the most unforgettable and haunting tracks on Vermis.
Ulcerate drummer Jamie Saint-Merat was featured in Decibel Magazine's Decebrity Playlist today as well. Here he discusses a wide array of music far-removed from the extreme, clandestine torturous metal he creates with Ulcerate, but are tracks which feature drumming he feels "display phenomenal drumming from drummers that really transcend all musical boundaries, regardless of whether or not you like the style or genre."
