News: STREAM SELF-TITLED DEBUT ALBUM FROM BAY AREA’S SUCCUMB

Steeped in anticipation, Succumb’s debut album is available for streaming today via Noisey. The San Fransisco quartet solder epic lyrics with ghastly intensity and malevolent black metal stylings, making for a 7-track maelstrom of punk-infused war metal. 

 

Due out May 5 (Flenser), Succumb’s self-titled debut was recorded by bay area luminary Jack Shirley (Deafheaven, Botanist, Oathbreaker, etc.) and features seven songs touching on far-spanning influences including death metal, metallic hardcore, and ‘90s Napalm Death. The ace in the sleeve, though, is vocalist Cheri Musrasrik, who juxtaposes powerful metal riffing with a cavernous howl, waxing poetic on themes like human experimentation and dystopian futures.
