DROP NEW SINGLE ‘ATTRITION’ AHEAD OF U.S. SPRING TOUR
NEW ALBUM DESCENT OUT APRIL 10TH
WATCH | STREAM
New York death metal legends IMMOLATION are reaching a fever pitch as they prepare to unleash Descent. Their twelfth studio album arrives April 10th via Nuclear Blast Records, just as the band kicks off a North American tour alongside label mates BEHEMOTH.
Today, the band release the second single, ‘Attrition’; a masterclass in tension. Defined by its crushing groove and volatile tempo shifts the track opens with a crawling, mid-paced groove that eventually gives way to stunning tempo shifts, culminating in a bone-shattering finale. This is dark death metal at its most cinematic—equal parts atmospheric depth and sheer, crushing brutality proving IMMOLATION remains the gold standard of the genre.
Watch the music video for ‘Attrition‘ directed by the band’s own Bob Vigna, here:

IMMOLATION comments: “We are excited to release, ‘Attrition’, another new track from our upcoming album, Decent. This song is a dark, powerful heavy track with plenty of intensity. “Attrition” has a dismal, hopeless atmosphere…as it focuses on the senseless wars and battles for territory that mankind seems to constantly repeat, no matter what the cost. The drum work by Steve Shalaty is a key component in this song as it emphasizes the overall emotion of the track, with not only a militant feel, but unique rhythmic cymbal work and other twists that bring the musical parts to life. ‘Attrition’ is a good example of the diverse nature of Descent. A catchy, yet explosive track with all the IMMOLATION elements. We hope you enjoy ‘Attrition’!”

Descent was captured across two locations: Justin Passamonte tracked guitars, bass, and vocals at Jpass Music, while drums wererecorded at Mercinary Studios with Noah Buchanan. The production was a collaborative effort between the band and long-time engineer Zack Ohren, who also handled the mixing and mastering. The result is a muscular, high-fidelity production that captures the band’s most fiery and brooding moments with equal clarity. To call Descent “heavy” or “brutal” is an understatement; this is death metal with a unique, elevated voice that stands entirely alone.
Visually, the band has once again tapped Eliran Kantor to craft a haunting cover masterpiece—a true hallmark of the Immolation aesthetic— complemented by Santiago Jaramillo’s (Triple Seis Design) internal booklet illustrations. With this release, IMMOLATION reinforces their status as one of the most enduring and vital forces in the genre.
