EPK – CHUNKED Inhaling the Infestation (Gore House Productions)
Publicist – Jon Asher – jon[@]ashermediarelations[.]com
“I think that people will like to hear more material that follows the same path of the EP with the obvious addition of newer structures, variations, and influences. Now that this band is playing live shows, I took the live presence more into account while writing the material. This upcoming album is going to make our fans drag their knuckles on the ground like a Neanderthal and de-revolutionize back to their primitive state. The singles will do the same thing.” – Arian Mauk – Chunked

About The Album Artwork:
The album artwork is just the outline of a cave, which walks in line with the initial idea I had for chunky cavernous death metal.
About the album as a whole (LYRICALLY & MUSICALLY):
This EP is a simple and effective type of death metal with no extra flair. Death Metal down to its core.
Track by Track (LYRICALLY & MUSICALLY):
1. âPulsing Excrementâ is about a big olâ pile of shit. The main focus of this track was to kick open the door with an instant hook and end with a slowed breakdown.
2. âLiquid Cranial Detonationâ follows the topic of someone’s brain and skull exploding. Simple as that. It is a short track that is meant to be a constant headbang.
3. âConcrete Veinsâ is a very literal song, being about veins made of concrete. It is a short but sweet track that dips heavy into the hardcore influence mentioned previously.
4. âInhaling the Infestationâ is a power ballad about a swarm of insects slowly taking over a human body, very painfully and meticulously. It is a well-structured and catchy track that will make your knuckles sink towards the ground and start grinding across the floor.
5. âPutridityâ takes a different and a little more specific route than the other tracks. The lyrics describe a pile of strangled and dead elderly people who have been stacked and stored for months. Rotting and reeking. The usual.
6. âSubmerged in Rotten Sewageâ wraps up this EP following a similar structure as track 4. Once again, the lyrics are very literal to the song’s name. Theyâre about getting submerged in slimy, rotting, thick, putrid sewage.
