PRESS RELEASE:
The legendary Dutch Death Doom Elite ASPHYX will be releasing their new, 10th full studio album “Necroceros” worldwide on January 22nd, 2021 via Century Media Records.
Therefore, ASPHYX are launching a second single for the album with the song “Knights Templar Stand” today, which can also be checked out in a lyric-video created by Maurice Swinkels / Younique Film (Legion Of the Damned, Exodus, Kataklysm, etc.) here: https://youtu.be/grkuAMJYv0M
ASPHYX frontman Martin van Drunen checked in about the song as follows: “A mainly very heavy uptempo track about the Knights Templar battling bravely in the Levant. Outnumbered by many, standing their ground until the very end. A typical ASPHYX song in our well-known neck-breaking metal style and fashion.”
A video for the upcoming album’s first single “Botox Implosion”, also directed by Maurice Swinkels / Younique Film, can still be seen here: https://youtu.be/9zw241m3JRQ
“Necroceros” was recorded at Tom Meier’s Tom Meier Studio as well as at Paul Baayens’ The Mörserstudio and then finally mixed/mastered by Sebastian “Seeb” Levermann at Greenman Studios. The album once again features front cover artwork by Axel Hermann and contains the following tracklisting:
