"We are super stoked with the release of our new album ‘Unleeched’ with 2 bonus tracks via M Theory Audio today - Friday the 13th. By the way, what a date huh?” says CLAUSTROFOBIA singer/guitarist Marcus D’Angelo.


“We have a new video clip for the track ‘The Encrypted,’ which is the second song off ‘Unleeched,’ and it's the heaviest, grooving track on the album. There is a curious story about the shooting day of this video,” further elaborates Marcus. “We recorded it on the same day as the video for ‘Stronger than Faith’ https://youtu.be/EPBxxs6a_K8?si=vmChlSecmZIgT8wr in Nelson Ghost Town, an abandoned gold mine located just 45 minutes from Las Vegas, and then we decided to do an extra take in a different spot, but the photography and background was too different from what we had been doing. Someone mentioned, you could shoot another song in this spot. We looked at each other and said, why not? We switched t-shirts, chose the ‘The Encrypted’ song and improvised everything on the spot without any pre-production or ideas. It was all very spontaneous and we were extremely pleased with the results. Caio D'Angelo, our drummer, edited it and this pure art happened.”


“We are about to hit the road with Sepultura, Obituary and Agnostic Front and 80% of our set will be focused on the new album, ‘Unleeched,’ which is gonna be at the merch booth available on CD and Cassette, we count on your support. Don't expect anything but our best. See you on the road."


‘Unleeched’ was produced, mixed and mastered by Adair Daufembach (Angra, Cadaver, Tony MacAlpine) with cover artwork by Alcides Burn. The album which has been released in Brazil, as well as digitally, is now being made available domestically (and for the first-time on cassette).


“The first step in our partnership with M-Theory Audio will be the reissue of the album ‘Unleeched,’ including two bonus tracks – ‘Riff Cult’ and ‘Força além da Força’ which is a Portuguese version of Pantera's ‘Strength Beyond Strength,’” explains Marcus. “We composed and recorded this album during the pandemic, and all that atmosphere of uncertainty, fear and faith were crucial to finishing the work. For the first time we used clean vocals on a song, we brought Marc Rizzo [Soulfly, Cavalera Conspiracy, Ill Nino guitarist] as a guest player. This album is very brutal but there are lots of emotions on it. I consider it our most inspired album ever because the band was united and solid."
