BAYONET DISMEMBERMENT declare war with new E.P, ‘Skull Crushed By A Tank’, out February 20th, via Iron Fortress Records!
Vancouver, British Columbia’s BAYONET DISMEMBERMENT arrive at the frontlines of the brutal death metal underground with their third EP, ‘Skull Crushed By A Tank’, set for release on February 20th, 2025 via Iron Fortress Records on digital, CD, and MC. Across four tracks, ‘Skull Crushed By A Tank’, channels the violence, dehumanization, and mechanized brutality of 21st-century warfare into a barrage of merciless death metal.
Featuring guest vocals from Ricky Myers of Suffocation, the opening fire of title track and lead single, ‘Skull Crushed By A Tank’, delivers exactly the level of subtlety its name promises. Thunderous percussion lands with the force of syncopated mortar fire, complete with a snare drum that sustains like the ringing of post-blast tinnitus, before pivoting into a second assault driven by double-kick artillery. From there, the track descends into the final offensive, built around tactically reduced yet equally targeted strikes, creating a suffocating pressure designed for total annihilation.
Consisting of Landon Furoy (vocals), Christian Frizzelle (guitar), Colin Ryley (guitar), Emmanuel Gonzalez (bass), and Nathan Pope (drums), BAYONET DISMEMBERMENT formed in 2023 with a singular mission: brutal death metal inspired by the violence and dehumanization of the early-2000s ‘War on Terror’ with ‘Skull Crushed By A Tank’ serving as the unit’s most uncompromising mission statement.
BAYONET DISMEMBERMENT also enlisted Undeath’s Alex Sason for guest vocals on the track “Mutilated,” adding further firepower to the EP’s offensive. Recording and mixing duties were handled by Andre Urquidi, with final mastering carried out by Cameron “Big Chocolate” Argon. The EP’s fittingly brutal visual identity was executed by Julian Mortuus, with the BAYONET DISMEMBERMENT logo created by Chad Green.
Fans of Dying Fetus, Suffocation, Cannibal Corpse, Sanguisugabogg, and 200 Stab Wounds will find BAYONET DISMEMBERMENT’s latest EP to be a focused, punishing statement, brutal death metal deployed with tactical intent and zero regard for mercy.
‘Skull Crushed By A Tank’ is available for pre-order via Iron Fortress Records HERE.
