Vancouver, British Columbia technical death metal outfit Atrae Bilis presents an official video for “Open The Effigy”. The song is found on the band’s debut LP, Apexapien, which saw release earlier this month through 20 Buck Spin.
Directed by RZ Cinema (Archspire, Comeback Kid), the new video showcases Atrae Bilis in a high-energy performance setting. “Open The Effigy” captures the band at its vehement core. In this chapter of the Apexapien story, a ceremonial trepanation shifts the terrestrial unto morbid clairvoyance. Tune in and writhe, as “skull and steel bathe in herbs, initiate the opening of the gold leaf effigy.”
Atrae Bilis’ Apexapien was recorded by Matt Roach at Rain City Recorders, engineered by Matt Roach and Christian Donaldson with assistant engineering by Emily Ryan and Jonathan Mazzeo and drum technician Alex Glassford. The record was mixed and mastered by Christian Donaldson (Cryptopsy, Despised Icon, Beneath The Massacre) and completed with stunning cover art by Eliran Kantor (Atheist, Bloodbath, Hate Eternal, Sodom, Kreator), layout and design by Dan Fried, and photography by Rob Zawistowski.
Apexapien is available now on CD and cassette at the 20 Buck Spin webshop and through all digital providers. The vinyl version will see release on December 3rd.
The band also announces the departure of bassist Brendan Campbell, and now encourages interested applicants to connect with them: “Brendan is no longer handling bass duties and the Atrae Bilis circle is now open. To be clear, the band is firing on all cylinders and this transmogrification has not impeded songwriting or bookings. Positive, proactive and professional initiates are encouraged to contact the triumvirate's management at atraebilis@gmail.com."
On Apexapien, the follow-up to the 2020 Divinihility EP, angular, blackened dissonance, exhilarating experimental progressivism, and crushing guttural savagery merge into a cacophony of violently discordant death metal, all held together with a strict focus, discipline, and astonishing percussive momentum. Thoroughly modern in scope and mercilessly severe in execution, the heinous battering inflicted on Apexapien establishes Atrae Bilis at the vanguard of a new breed of forward-looking death metal bands not content to simply pay tribute to or completely abandon the genre’s towering progenitors.
