Saskatoon, Canada’s rising metal force, Pythonic, has announced the release of their first single, “Guiltfeeder”, a blistering preview of their highly anticipated sophomore EP, "Decomposition," set to drop on December 19, 2025.
"The intro riff just makes it the perfect fit for the lead spot. The sick new lyrics tell of backstabbing friends, the emotional toll it causes, and the unmasking of those backstabbers. A story most people can relate to. The ending of the song definitely is the best part, though. You have the grouped up vocals that transition right into Ryan’s solo. That solo is so masterfully clean you’ll want to just keep replaying it. You also have the rhythm behind it all, which just keeps your head bobbing along. Mix it all together and you've got a certifiable banger on your hands," the band adds.

Pythonic’s forthcoming EP "Decomposition" marks a bold step into heavier, death‑metal territory, pushing the band’s sound to new extremes. The tracks have been “decomposed”, stripped down, sharpened, and rebuilt to spotlight the commanding presence of new vocalist Morgan Warriner and the band’s refined direction. Songs like “Liturgy” showcase their intensified death metal edge, while “Pills” captures Warriner’s versatility as he shifts seamlessly from frantic cadences to bone‑chilling screams. By breathing new life into older material, "Decomposition" revitalizes Pythonic’s catalogue, transforming solid songs into devastating anthems. With Warriner’s guttural power, Max Hiske’s thunderous bass, and Jayden’s relentless drumming, the band reaches its tightest and most ferocious form yet. Mixed and mastered by Reid Paraszczynec of Lucid Distortion Audio, the EP strikes the perfect balance between raw aggression and polished production, delivering a true sonic onslaught.
“These songs needed their fair chance, and Morgan has given them that through his vocal performance. Reid’s mixing brought the next chapter of Pythonic to life the right way,” says guitarist Vincent Kohut.
Lyrically, "Decomposition" explores themes of corruption, drug addiction, toxic relationships, and summoning the devil. Written primarily by Warriner, with contributions from former bassist Alex Conley, the lyrics are raw, personal, and vividly dark.
The EP artwork, created by Danya Lawton, continues the visual legacy of Pythonic’s debut release. Lawton “decayed” the original design with authentic mushroom imagery and a haunting central eye, symbolizing the band’s transformation and heavier direction.
The band will also celebrate the EP with two major live appearances: opening for Canadian metal legends Into Eternity on November 21st at Black Cat Tavern in Saskatoon, and storming the stage at Slaughterfest in Edmonton on December 6th at The Starlite Room.
Upcoming Shows:
Nov 21, 2025 – Saskatoon, SK - Black Cat Tavern (w/ Into Eternity)
Dec 6, 2025 – Edmonton, AB - Starlite Room - Slaughterfest (w/ Display of Decay, Brain Stem, Ages of Ashes, A Modern Prometheus, Cell) - info
