Benighted doesn&#8217;t just walk, no, they trample upon the line between sanity and madness with unparalleled brutality. A single that serves as a flagrant declaration of what lies ahead &#8211; an expedition into the darkest corridors of the human mind, inspired by the chilling tales of those suffering from delusional parasitosis.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Featured on this monstrous track is the vocal prowess of <strong>Oli Peters<\/strong> from the technical death metal giants <strong>Archspire<\/strong>. <strong>Peters<\/strong>&#8216; inclusion adds a new dimension of vocal terror, intertwining seamlessly with Julien Truchan&#8217;s harrowing screams and the band&#8217;s intricate, skull-crushing instrumentals. Produced with the finesse that only <strong>Benighted <\/strong>can deliver, <strong><em>Nothing Left To Fear<\/em><\/strong> sets the stage for what is poised to be one of the most groundbreaking releases in extreme metal history. As the harbinger of the auditory turmoil that is <strong><em>Ekbom<\/em><\/strong>, this single promises nothing short of a relentless, unyielding, and utterly haunting musical journey.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">You can listen to their new single <strong><em>Nothing Left To Fear<\/em><\/strong> through <strong>Season of Mist<\/strong>&#8216;s YouTube channel:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe title=\"Benighted - &quot;Nothing Left to Fear&quot; (Feat.

They&#8217;re bringing along Ten56. on all of these dates, with support from Rise of the North Star, Stinky &amp; KAMIZOL K on some dates.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Hellfest Warm-Up Tour 2024:<br><\/strong>19 April: Clermont Ferrand, FR @ La Cooperative de Mai<br>20 April: Bordeaux, FR @ Rock School Barbey<br>21 April: Biarritz, FR @ Atabal<br>22 April: Cahors, FR @ Les Docks<br>23 April: Montpellier, FR @ Victorie 2<br>25 April: Nice, FR @ Stockfish<br>26 April: Crest, FR @ Bridge to Hell<br>27 April: Lausanne, CH @ Docks<br>28 April: Montbeliard, FR @ L&#8217;Axone<br>30 April: Oignies, FR @ La Metaphone<br>2 May: Paris, FR @ Cit\u00e9 de la Musique<br>3 May: Cherbourg, FR @ La Breche<br>4 May: Nantes, FR @ Warehouse<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading has-text-align-center\">Benighted biography and Ekbom details:<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Dive into the darkest realms of the human psyche as <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/brutalbenighted\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Benighted<\/a><\/strong>, the French purveyors of brutal death metal &amp; grindcore, unleash their tenth full-length album <strong><em>Ekbom <\/em><\/strong>in April 2024. The madness that has defined their discography continues with this radical soundtrack to the twisted times we inhabit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Born from French Death and Black metal bands <strong>Dishumanized<\/strong>, <strong>Darkness Fire<\/strong> and <strong>Osgiliath<\/strong>, <strong>Benighted <\/strong>emerged in 1998 with a mission to explore a more brutal, heavy, and modern form of musical expression. The impact of their first self-produced and self-titled full-length album in 2000 transformed <strong>Benighted <\/strong>from a side-project into a main act, quickly amassing a devoted fan base. Subsequent albums like <strong><em>Psychose <\/em><\/strong>(2002), <strong><em>Insane Cephalic Production <\/em><\/strong>(2004), <strong><em>Identisick <\/em><\/strong>(2006), and <strong><em>Icon <\/em><\/strong>(2007) further cemented their visceral, skull-breaking sound into extreme death metal history.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">After a detour into the realms of <strong><em>Necrobreed <\/em><\/strong>in 2017, <strong>Benighted <\/strong>celebrated their 20th anniversary by capturing the live madness with <strong>Dogs Always Bite Harder Than Their Master<\/strong> in 2018.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">With <strong><em>Obscene Repressed<\/em><\/strong>, they once again took sadistic pleasure in pushing the boundaries of brutality, delving into the disturbed mind of little <strong>Michael<\/strong>. His relentless battle against demons, fueled by unresolved oedipal issues with his mother, provided a grotesque tableau for <strong>Benighted<\/strong>&#8216;s sonic butchery. Not content with merely slaughtering everything in their auditory path, <strong>Benighted <\/strong>crafted thematically explorative pieces, each turn in their music revealing new layers of horror and despair.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">As the relentless journey continues, Benighted is set to unleash <strong><em>Ekbom <\/em><\/strong>in April 2024, an album that draws inspiration from the nightmarish &#8216;<em>Ekbom syndrome<\/em>.&#8217; This rare neurological disorder, also known as Delusional Parasitosis, forms the thematic core of the upcoming release. A feeling of having a vile concoction of parasites, worms, and insects crawling under your skin is an apt description of what Benighted have to offer on this newest release. The auditory assault mirrors the repulsive sensations of the syndrome, a visceral and unsettling journey into the abyss of the human mind.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Madness reigns yet again, this time intertwining with the haunting echoes of Ekbom syndrome. Brace yourselves for another mind-shattering chapter in the <strong>Benighted <\/strong>saga as they continue to carve their niche in the putrid annals of extreme metal, leaving a trail of sonic disgust in their wake.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter size-large\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/alliedforces.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/Benighted-Ekbom-2024-1024x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-28382\" srcset=\"https:\/\/alliedforces.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/Benighted-Ekbom-2024-1024x1024.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/alliedforces.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/Benighted-Ekbom-2024-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/alliedforces.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/Benighted-Ekbom-2024-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/alliedforces.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/Benighted-Ekbom-2024-768x768.jpg 768w, https:\/\/alliedforces.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/Benighted-Ekbom-2024.jpg 1500w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Tracklist<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Prodrome (1:19)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Scars (3:15)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Morgue (3:22)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Le Vice des Entrailles (3:06)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Nothing Left to Fear (2:44)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Ekbom (3:42)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Metastasis (3:33)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>A Reason for Treason (3:18)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Fame of the Grotesque (2:20)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Scapegoat (2:22)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Flesh against Flesh (3:18)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Mother Earth, Mother Whore (4:28)<\/li>\n<\/ol>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Benighted unveil their next track \u00abNothing Left To Fear\u00bb from their highly anticipated upcoming album \u00abEkbom\u00bb.<\/p>","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":28385,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1159],"tags":[1334,1277],"class_list":["post-28842","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-news","tag-archspire","tag-benighted"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/alliedforces.eu\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/28842","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/alliedforces.eu\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/alliedforces.eu\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/alliedforces.eu\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/alliedforces.eu\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=28842"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/alliedforces.eu\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/28842\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/alliedforces.eu\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/28385"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/alliedforces.eu\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=28842"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/alliedforces.eu\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=28842"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/alliedforces.eu\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=28842"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
