New Single "Winged Death" Issued By The Lurking Fear

As Swedish death metal all-star outfit The Lurking Fear - featuring At the Gates' Tomas Lindberg, among others - add the completing touches to the debut album, in addition to performing live for the first-ever gigs this weekend in Sweden, the band adds to the excitement by revealing the debut digital single and details on the upcoming debut album "Out Of The Voiceless Grave," which drops on August 11th via Century Media Records.

The new single, "Winged Death (EP Version)," will be featured on the debut self-titled 7" EP alongside three other tracks - "Tongued In Foul Flames," "The Infernal Dread" and "Winged Death" - which can be pre-ordered now at this location. Check out the song in the player below.

Lurking Fear checked in with the following comments on the track: “So, here is the first full blast of pure death metal filth for you maniacs, taken from the 3-track self-titled debut 7” EP! 'Winged Death' is our little death metal epos about hungry Lovecraftian insects devouring you from the inside out. It has all the different elements of The Lurking Fear, the fast, pounding death metal mayhem, the slow, creepy horror/doom parts and howling screams of terror. Straight out of our coffin!”

As earlier stated, the band is currently wrapping up the recording of the debut album at Welfare Studios (Bombus, RAM, Bombs of Hades) in Gothernbug, Sweden. The band gives the following update:

“We are in the middle of wrapping everything up in the studio and have just started the mixing process for the 11 tracks we recorded. It’s sounding nasty and raw, just the way we want it! The record is called 'Out Of The Voiceless Grave' and that title sums up what the album and actually band are all about. Our idea is that you get a glimpse of the horrors spewing out from our metal grave of interstellar death. The album is basically our Vortex spawn, a beast with eleven heads, all ready to devour you! We are very pleased with how it sounds right now, as the guys at Welfare Sounds understood our concept immediately and have managed to capture some pure death metal filth on tape!”
