In the wake of an extraordinary year for Kassogtha, following the success of their last album rEvolve, which included a triumphant European tour and numerous unforgettable shows, the band finds themselves more determined than ever to conquer new heights in their genre.

‘Rise’ is a manifestation of this hunger, born from the band’s relentless pursuit of their life goals. Born out of pure passion, the song encapsulates the essence of fighting against the odds and pushing boundaries. The blend of brutality and catchiness creates a sonic experience where death metal influences intertwine with harsh and empowering vocals, forging a unique musical journey.

Lyrically, ‘Rise’ delivers a powerful message, a testament to the band’s connection with their fans. The song is a dedication to those who find solace and strength in Kassogtha‘s music, especially those facing challenging situations. Through this song, Kassogtha aims to unite fans with a common message of courage, resilience, and the pursuit of their dreams.

As Kassogtha continues to break barriers, ‘Rise’ stands as a testament to their unwavering commitment to both their craft and their fans.

Kassogtha stands for old-school riffs and progressive inspiration, authenticity and sincerity above smoke and mirrors, savage grooves and blast beats, creativity and speed, and pure, honest dedication to their craft: a genuine metal band for true metal fans that takes the genre further without abandoning its core ingredients. From Pink Floyd to Gojira, Kassogtha’s no-nonsense brand of groovy progressive death metal combines a variety of influences to create a steamrolling fusion of irresistible riffs, neck-breaking drums, and a vocal range covering brutal growls counteracting ethereal melodies.

In November 2022, these fast-rising progressive death metallers emerged from Fascination Street Studios in Sweden with guns blazing and released their second album rEvolve. The songs were perfected with producer/recording engineer David Castillo (Carcass, Opeth, Leprous) and mixing engineer Linus Corneliusson (Ihsahn, Amorphis). The album release was followed up by a UK tour with Cellar Darling and a mostly sold-out tour with Avatar in Europe.
