ADEPT Release Cathartic Anthem “Parting Ways”; Audio
“Parting Ways” is a cathartic anthem built upon pummelling chugs, and serene, soaring melodies, putting their virtuosic songwriting command on full display. Arriving soon before their next string of European festival appearances at Reload, Summer Breeze Open Air and Rock The Lakes, “Parting Ways” holds no punches, and neither do Adept.
Formed in the early 2000s in Trosa, Sweden, Adept helped shape the early European metalcore landscape, rising to prominence through passionate songwriting, high-octane shows, and raw emotional energy. Following their fiery comeback at Core Fest 2024 and numerous explosive festival performances, the band is now getting fans ready for Blood Covenant, an album sure to be redefining their sound with sharpened aggression, cinematic scope, and lyrical depth.
Adept about “Parting Ways”: “‘Parting Ways’ is hard and melodic, blending new elements with the core sound that defines us. It’s a track that allowed us to push our boundaries while staying true to who we are, and we’re genuinely proud of how it turned out. We can’t wait to share it.”
Listen to “Parting Ways” here, and below:
Drenched in vivid hues of red, Blood Covenant is a raw, unflinching reflection on scars carried, battles fought, and a hunger for authenticity, in spite of a world so rife with insincerity. Opening with the intense title track “Blood Covenant”, the album sets a brooding tone that echoes through the record. “Heaven”, drags the listener through a guilt ridden storm of thunderous, fast-paced riffs, while the hard-hitting “Define Me” follows with an imposing attitude and snapping aggression, underlining its uncompromising message of self-reclamation. Both tracks are marked by Adept’s signature blend of emotional intensity and unrelenting breakdowns. “YOU” dives deep into the emotional wreckage of love lost, with swelling, cathartic guitar leads and honest, bleeding heart lyricism. “Time Is A Destroyer” pulses with urgency and existential dread, unfolding over a haunting acoustic backdrop accented by swelling strings, while “Parting Ways” lean into darker, more cinematic territory, introducing eerie ambient layers and post-metal textures that capture a moment of vulnerability wrapped in restrained heaviness and reflection. “Filthy Tongue” dives headfirst into brooding industrial terrain, fusing harsh textures and hypnotic rhythms into a raw, relentless beast. Tracks like “Ignore The Sun” channels melodic death metal energy, leveraging deliciously melodic shredding to increase the impact of its tectonic breakdowns. “The Rapture Of Dust”, the album’s closer, collapses the record into a final, sweeping moment of reflection—crushing and beautiful in equal measure.
Produced by Henrik Udd (Bring Me The Horizon, Architects) together with guitarist Gustav Lithammer and vocalist Robert Ljung at Henrik Udd Recording, the album boasts a sonically expansive and emotionally intimate production. Mixed by Henrik Udd and mastered by Thomas “Plec” Johansson (Soilwork, Dynazty) at The Panic Room, Blood Covenant wields immense weight and clarity without sacrificing any of its raw energy.
