'Before I Vanish' is a great Progressive Death Metal single!!!

Swiss progressive death metallers Kassogtha have revealed their stunning new single 'Before I Vanish'. 'Before I Vanish' is the second glimpse of new material from the quintet's forthcoming album 'Revolve' which will be released in the Autumn, 2022. Kassogtha are led by Vocalist / Lyricist Stephany, whose incredible command of growled and clean vocals help mark the band as future Swiss heavy music stars. A concept album 'Revolve' tells the story of an endless self destructive cycle of fear, anxiety, and jealousy.

In a World that normalises negativity, we have forgotten how to be happy, and following a pandemic-enforced long. It's a hard look at humanity and society, this is Stephany’s journey of dealing with these emotions. This album is a perfectly timed release valve for two years of isolation, anxiety and grief... a furious expression of frustration at missing the things we love that help us get through difficult times.

Kassogtha band place authenticity and sincerity above smoke and mirrors: a genuine metal band for true metal fans, that takes the genre further without abandoning its core ingredients. From Pink Floyd to Gojira via way of The Agonist and Arch Enemy, 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 devastating growls and ethereal melodies.

On 'Revolve' produced at Stockholm’s legendary Fascination Street Studios with David Castillo (Carcass, Opeth, Leprous), Linus Corneliusson (Ihsahn, Amorphis) and Tony Lindgren (Carcass, Opeth, Katatonia), Kassogtha showcase old school riffs and progressive inspiration, savage grooves and blast beats, creativity and speed, and pure, honest dedication to their craft. 'Revolve' will be released on Klang Machine Records, the newly-formed heavy music label co-founded by Swiss Metal wizard Merlin Sutter (Cellar Darling, Ex-Eluveitie).
