PRESS RELEASE:
Houston, Texas death metal band Haserot have unveiled Curse of Haserot, the third single from their upcoming debut full-length album, Advent of Suffering.
Named after the band itself, Curse of Haserot emerged from a collaborative writing process and serves as one of the album's defining moments. Built upon riffs inspired by classic acts such as Celtic Frost and Morbid Angel, the track combines crushing mid-tempo heaviness with a dark and memorable atmosphere. Lyrically, the song explores the pursuit of salvation through misguided means, ultimately ending in negation and cold oblivion despite one's best intentions.
The song also features special guest appearances from legendary guitarists James Murphy (Death, Obituary, Testament) and Andy LaRocque (King Diamond), who trade solos with Haserot guitarist Maurice Eggenschwiler during the track's extended finale. Originally conceived as a musical call-and-response inspired by the band's admiration for the lead work found on classic releases from Death, Obituary, and King Diamond, the collaboration evolved into one of the album's standout moments.
"Having both James Murphy and Andy LaRocque contribute to the same song was surreal," says Eggenschwiler. "We're huge fans of their work, and hearing their unique styles interact with the music was something we never imagined when writing the track. Andy's solo ultimately became the final thing you hear on the album, which felt like the perfect way to close the record."
The track appears on Haserot's forthcoming debut album Advent of Suffering, mixed and mastered by Dan Swanö (Edge of Sanity, Bloodbath).

Houston, Texas death metal band Haserot emerge with their debut full-length album, Advent of Suffering—a focused and uncompromising statement rooted in the traditions of classic 1990s death metal.
Formed in 2019, the band draws from the genre’s foundational era while sharpening their sound with a modern sense of structure and clarity. Across the album, Haserot deliver crushing mid-tempo riffs, dark atmosphere, and melodic lead work, informed by the legacy of Morbid Angel, Entombed, Bloodbath, and Carcass.
Following the groundwork laid by their EP Throne of Malice, Advent of Suffering expands the band’s approach into a heavier, more deliberate and cohesive release—balancing weight, groove, and tension without excess.
The album was once again mixed and mastered by Dan Swanö (Edge of Sanity, Bloodbath), bringing definition and depth to the band’s dense and dynamic sound.
With Advent of Suffering, Haserot stand poised to make their most devastating statement yet—an unrelenting offering of old-school brutality sharpened with modern precision.
Prepare for the Advent of Suffering.
