ABYSMAL DESCENT: Mystification premieres "Labyrinth of Distress" single from Belgian death metallers; debut LP "Dismal Thoughts" out soon via Nuclear Winter Records!

"Labyrinth of Distress" is the brooding new single from Belgian death metallers ABYSMAL DESCENT. The song, now streaming exclusively at Mystification Zine, is the latest single preceding the band's debut LP, "Dismal Thoughts", due out October 31st 2025 via Nuclear Winter Records.

Stream "Labyrinth of Distress" at THIS LOCATION.

From the depths of Brussels’ death metal underground rises ABYSMAL DESCENT, a new entity forged from the ashes of Dehuman and strengthened by the twisted visions of R.S., L.L. (Putrid Offal, Echo Solar Void, Terrifiant) and M.D. (Echo Solar Void). Soon joined by R.M. (Neptunian Maximalism) and A.L. (Saqra’s Cult), the band completed a sinister line-up dedicated to conjuring a harrowing requiem of death metal.

Their debut full-length, "Dismal Thoughts", will be released via Nuclear Winter Records on October 31st, 2025 - a suitably unholy date for this descent into sonic darkness. Drawing inspiration from legendary forces such as Immolation, Morbid Angel, and Incantation, the album weaves a tapestry of gloom and malevolence, crushing riffs and abyssal atmospheres.

"Dismal Thoughts" is a testament to death metal’s most oppressive traditions: a record that drips with menace, channeling both the cavernous weight of old-school brutality and the suffocating dread of modern extremity. It is a soundtrack to decay, despair, and the shadows that loom ever closer.

Prepare to be engulfed.
