Impurity release new track ‘Ancient Remains’
14th January 2025Impurity are about to drag Swedish death metal back to its raw, chainsaw snarled roots with their upcoming debut album The Eternal Sleep, which will be out on 7th March via Hammerheart Records.
The new offering is recorded by Tomas Skogsberg at Sunlight Studio and mastered by death metal expert Dan Swanö’. The first single ‘Ancient Remains’ was recently released via the label’s YouTube channel.
Impurity comment on the track: “We’re proud to present our first release since our debut demo ‘Forever Lifeless’ two years ago. Three minutes of anti-christian death metal propaganda delivered by our debut album. ”Ancient Remains’ seeks out to condemn the religious pillage raids that exterminated pagan traditions across the world and its hypocrisy. It may not be a new topic but it’s one close to our hearts.”Pre-orders for The Eternal Sleep are now available here: https://impurity.lnk.to/theeternalsleep
Initially established in December of 2021 as Damnation by guitarist Ville Esbjörn and bassist Liam Curcic in Sickla, Stockholm. Seeking to complete their line up, lead-guitarist Axel Ask was inducted, finally uniting the members that would go on to forge Impurity. Shortly thereafter, with one of their many drummers, Impurity recorded their first demo Forever Lifeless in September 2022, at Studio Pulverisa.
After the release of Forever Lifeless, Impurity went on to play multiple shows throughout Sweden, primarily in their hometown of Stockholm. During this time, Impurity entered the studio in March of 2024, to record their debut album The Eternal Sleep at Sunlight Studio. With Tomas Skogsberg’s production and Dan Swanö’s mastering work, they brought back a sound of Swedish Death Metal thought to be extinct. Incorporating the styles of bands such as Evocation, Eucharist, God Macabre and many more, their debut release will ensure an album that recalls memories of the forlorn underground scene in Sweden.
Signing with Hammerheart Records in September 2024 to release this debut, Impurity’s founding members, Esbjörn, Curcic, and Ask are set to push the boundaries further, aiming to challenge and redefine modern death metal with their relentless sound.
