Encoffination To Release New Album In November

Death dealers Encoffination will plague the Earth with the new opus, "O' Hell, Shine In Thy Whited Sepulchres" this November. Selfmadegod Records commented on the upcoming release:

"Picking up where they left off with last year's Ritual Ascension Beyond Flesh, this collection of new hymns redefines and magnifies Encoffination's signature sound; suffocating doom wrapped in the pure stench of death.

"Based on Ghoat's own experiences of working in the funeral industry, 'O' Hell, Shine In Thy Whited Sepulchres' is a concept album... not in the linear sense, but abstract; from the death of the human form to the sacrifice of flesh into the Earth.

"The album will be released via Selfmadegod Records this November; stay tuned for an official street date and more info on this anticipated slab of bereavement as it approaches."

Encoffination Announces New Album

Returning after last year’s suffocating debut album "Ritual Ascension Beyond Flesh," Encoffination is about to strike back with a new opus to death titled "O’ Hell, Shine In Thy Whited Sepulchres." The album will include up to ten new songs of abysmal, funeral-bound death metal, recorded in Cooper, Texas, and Atlanta, Georgia between January and May 2011.

Guitarist/vocalist Ghoat (Father Befouled, Vomitchapel) says of the new album : “Expect pure darkness. Take everything we have done before and turn it up. More death, more gloom, more decay. Guitars will crush, vocals will possess, and the atmosphere of Encoffination will strangle you. We are adding more texture in the riffs, more things to take you by the throat and steal your breath.”

A press release from the band also stated, "Based on Ghoat’s own experiences of working in the funeral industry, O’ Hell, Shine In Thy Whited Sepulchres will be a concept… not in the linear sense, but abstract; from the death of the human form to the sacrifice of flesh into the Earth. The album will be released via Poland’s Selfmadegod Records later this Summer. More info and an official release date will be announced in the coming weeks."

Encoffination Album To See CD Release

Selfmadegod Records has issued the following update about releasing Encoffination's debut album "Ritual Ascension Beyond Flesh:"

"Selfmadegod Records is proud to announce the release of the CD version of the debut album by the U.S. death metal/doom band Encoffination. Formed in 2009, Encoffination is the sepulchral embodiment of rancid death. Crushing, suffocating death metal doom of the lowest caliber. Named for the ritual preparation of the dead for burial, Encoffination exists below the plane of mortality; deep within the realms of death and decay. Slowly they lurch forth with their educated form of blasphemy, occult, and ritualistic expulsion of the holy from the earth.

"Ritual Ascension Beyond Flesh is the first full length of this amazing two-piece band made of Ghoat on vocals, guitar, and bass (also in Festered) and Elektrokutioner on drums (also in Decrepitaph, Festered, Tombstones, Beyond Hell, Scaremaker). Following the After their Temples Descend Below the Earth release, this Georgia/Texas-based duo attacks with an over 30 minutes long, 8-song album of cryptic metal influenced by early ‘90s American doom/death and bands like Incantation, Disembowelment, and Morpheus Descends. The album has already been released on tape format by Ritval Death Offerings, and the vinyl version is available on Psychedelic Lotus Order. Now it’s time for the CD version! Prepare for the most soul draining and graven death metal album of the year this September!" More...
