VERTIGINOUS RELEASE "INCESSANT AFFLICTION"

 

PRESS RELEASE:

VERTIGINOUS – INCESSANT AFFLICTION

LABEL: COMATOSE MUSIC

RELEASE DATE: AUGUST 7th 2026

Through the long, cold hours of night, in that darkness which seems to stretch into forever, I gaze upon the countless wounds that disfigure my skin; the long, jagged scars, the deep, never healing cuts – infected and pustulent – a tracery of torments unending. And beneath the skin, within the cage of bone and flesh that imprisons me, the voices scream, unceasing howls of rage and hatred, agony and terror, sneering spite and abject ruin. I am a construct of madness, plagued by memory and steeped in blood, haunted and beset by devils. There is no end in sight, no hope for respite from the ravages of horror. I am trapped in this eternal nightmare, this incessant affliction…

Having left the brutal death metal scene battered and broken with their 2024 debut album, Reek Of Putrefaction On Excruciating Lust, Indonesian duo Vertiginous have returned with a sickening second serving of mind warping malice – Incessant Affliction! Ten new tracks delivered with a breathless intensity, each one a fresh wave of dread and terror, another injection of adrenaline straight into the chambers of the heart. It all begins with ‘Suffering, Misery And Slaughtering’, a furious assault of bewildering savagery, monstrous riffs, frantic drumming and a voice from the darkest recesses of the dreams you try to forget, the blistering pace slipping into an agonised crawl through the detritus of death. The superb riffs in tracks like ‘Engraved Loathing’ are realised with surgical precision and the levels of performance from multi-instrumentalist Hendika Dwi Prasetyo are off the scale, as he invokes the sound of a body torn apart. The vocal performance from Jossi Bima is equally impressive, his bestial exhortations like drowning in blood on the deeply unsettling ‘Chaotic In The Weakened Reason’. From the vicious jabs and sick bass tones of ‘Tortured With Endless Despair’ through the violent rampage of ‘Incubated Inquietude’ – shocking in its force and velocity, intensely satisfying in its single minded purpose, its absolute need to destroy absolutely – to the remorseless ‘Unclear Misery’, a final demand for no mercy, no quarter asked or given, just wholesale slaughter to the last gasping breath, Incessant Affliction towers above the average brutal death metal fare. These acts of torture have been meticulously crafted and steeped in the very essence of rot, decay and carnage.

Mixed and mastered at Endless Gruesome Studio, where the likes of Vile Desolation and Analtopsy have spawned their cruel creations, Incessant Affliction has a sound that conjures visions of bodies raked by methodical bursts of machine gun fire, the vicious disassembling of the human form. With its entrails and organs adorned in the unnerving artwork of the renowned Timbul Cahyono, aka Bvllmetalart (Avulsed, Defeated Sanity, Massacre etc), Incessant Affliction will be unleashed upon the world by Comatose Music on August 7th. Vertiginous are coming and there is no place you can hide.
