Swine Overlord Reveals "Entheogenesis" Album Details

Swine Overlord today reveals full details on the "Entheogenesis" album. Featuring album art by renowned Chinese artist Guang Yang (Equilibrium, Putridity, Inanimate Existence), “Entheogenesis” was recorded at SO HQ and was mixed and mastered by Andrew Matzenger.

The album also includes special guest appearance by Tim Bee (Paroxysmal Butchering) and Jord James (Disentomb). A release date is set for September 23rd, 2016 via Gore House Productions.

"'Entheogenesis' is the result of over two years of experimentation and expansion of the sound we established," states guitarist and founding member Will Peplinski. "We think it is by far our most mature and dynamic effort yet. It has what you have come to expect, and much, much more."

Will adds: "The music drew from many new and old influences, including Cynic, Tool, Opeth and Meshuggah. The lyrical content comes in the form of a first person story, interweaving Judeo-Christian mythology and symbolism with a story of personal growth and triumph, to create a unique look at the human condition, and an even more unique death metal experience."

In regards the cover art, Peplinski comments: "The album art by Guang is the perfect piece to represent this tale of darkness and light. He combined deities from various religions into a massive horror, with one lone adventurer heading into the darkness within, as we all must do."
