Ingested Unveil the First Single with Their New Lineup, “Altar of Flesh”
Roughly four months after Jason Evans left the band, U.K. death metal outfit Ingested have officially announced earlier today that their lineup’s back to 100% capacity, as they’ve formally confirmed all the internet speculation correct and Josh Davies is the band’s new vocalist. Not only that, but they’ve also tapped The Faceless and Interloper guitarist Andrew Virrueta and Thomas O’Malley as their new bassist.
In addition to the lineup reveal, the band dropped their first single featuring the new additions, titled “Altar of Flesh”, ahead of their forthcoming North American tour. Both founding members Lyn Jeffs and Sean Hynes said they were excited to see how this new iteration of Ingested will go.
“With this new lineup, we are stronger, more focused, and more determined than ever to push Ingested to the next level. This is Ingested 2.0 – a team united by a shared vision to create the most punishing, uncompromising music of our career.
“To mark this monumental moment, we’re also unleashing our new single, ‘Altar Of Flesh.’ This track is a welcome nod to our roots: violent, dynamic, primal, and unapologetically human. It captures the raw, organic energy that defined our early days while showcasing how far we’ve come. Every riff, every guttural, and every beat is a visceral reminder of what Ingested is all about. Prepare yourselves. New lineup. New music. And this is just the beginning.”
Ingested have a North American tour lined up starting in two days, so hopefully Evans has had enough time to prepare. I’m sure he’ll be fine. Either way, you can check out the dates below and see if they’re coming to a venue near you.
