Brazilian brutals, GUTTED SOULs punch with single from new studio album!

GUTTED SOULS started in 2004 when the members of the band NECROPEDOPHILE, after releasing their demo "Fetal Gore" (2002), started deviating from their proposed path of making death metal in the vein of Cannibal Corpse, Sinister, Morbid Angel and such. As the musicians started to become more proficient in their respective instruments, the musical direction changed to something more technical and progressive side of death metal.

The band suffered countless changes since then, with numerous line-up changes, and the sole remaining founding member is Iron (IncognoscI, ex-Anopsy, ex-Diisgraça). After joining forces with Wellington Ferrari, the band decided to focus on death metal with politically infused lyrics about psychopathy, mediatic manipulation, and the corruption of science and religion, culminating in both the "Unconscious Automaton" EP (2012), "The Illusion of Freedom" album (2017) and single "Organic Portal (2019).

Within all years of existence Gutted Souls had a pleasure to play at Extreme Hate Festival and as a support of such great bands as: Obituary, Master, Carach Angren, Unleashed, Apocalyptic Raids and Krisiun.

Right now, band is preparing to unleash to the wider audience their new masterpiece, second studio album titled "Portals To Chaosium" which consist of 8 brand new songs (+intro & outro) fully marking a change of direction towards a darker, faster and even more brutal death metal worship.

This is how band describes new album: "What is Portals to Chaosium? It's brutal & technical death metal with the raw energy and nostalgia of 90's and early 2000 , but with modern production. Songs contains almost progressive solo sections, contrasting with breakdowns and fast blasts, with old school mid tempo beats in between - there is something for all lovers of the different subgenres of death metal. Lyrics are about cosmic horror, parasocial decay, alchemical transformation, entropy, transhumanism, existential dread, woven together to create a dark, dystopian narrative".

"Portals to Chaosium" was recorded (between June 2024-January 2025), mixed, mastered and produced by Victor Mendonça (ex-Lacerated and Carbonized). The guitars used were crafted specifically for this record by Carreiro Guitars. Cover artwork & layout was done by Aeon Artwork. Release date is set up on September 26, 2025 and will be released digitally and on CD by the Polish label Via Nocturna. CD could be purchased at official webstore (link here).
