“Forever Spoken” is a powerful exploration of humanity’s quest to leave a lasting legacy: the album delves into the trials, adversities, and struggles that shape our journey and challenge our ability to fulfill our destiny. Venturing into the realms of southern metal and sludge, it features intricate riffs and heavy metal double bass rhythms that elevate its intensity and complexity.
The album was recorded with the esteemed Phillip Cope (Kylesa, Baroness, Black Tusk), who returns to mix the record after his successful previous collaboration with the band. To complement the depth of the music and lyrics, the band enlisted the legendary Dan Seagrave (Morbid Angel, Gorguts, Suffocation) for the cover art. His iconic style perfectly captures the complexity and essence of “Forever Spoken,” making this collaboration a significant milestone for WITCHPIT.
