Archaic Bloodshed marks the return of California's brutal death metal warriors Embodied Torment. Darker and more atmospheric than ever, this three-song EP invokes dismal chapters of human history in a violent assault while drawing on a wide range of extreme metal traditions.

Embodied Torment first emerged in 2012 in Northern California and gradually unleashed a savage form of death metal drawing comparisons to genre masters Disgorge (USA), Brodequin, and Defeated Sanity, with atmospheric moments evoking funeral doom and black metal at times. Freshly returned from years in dormancy, the band now includes brutal death veterans Andrew Smith (Splattered), Mark Chandler (Orchidectomy, Reviled, Into The Ashes), and Alex Cohen (Malignancy (live), Involuntary Convulsion, Contrarian) alongside founding guitarist Joaquin Chavez.

Archaic Bloodshed credits:

Mixed and mastered at 18 Source Productions in Sacramento, with cover design by guitarist Joaquin Chavez based on Pieter Bruegel the Elder's masterpiece, "The Suicide of Saul" (1562).
