Inferi Share “Vile” New Song

Y’know I only just realized that Inferi take their name from Harry Potter. That’s wild. I don’t generally think of Harry Potter as being especially metal, but this band have convinced me.

‘Cuz the rising technical-progressive death metal act continue to impress with their new single, “Vile Genesis.” Like all the best tech-death, it’s a Swiss Army Knife of a song that mixes a lot of different elements into something that somehow feels at once like a precision tool and a blunt instrument.

Listen to “Vile Genesis” below (via Decibel). The song is the title track from Inferi’s fifth full-length, which comes out on September 10 via The Artisan Era. Pre-order it here.
