Phoenix, Arizona-based death metal quintet, VEHEMENCE, returns to full-time activities in 2015 with their anxiously awaited first album in over a decade, Forward Without Motion.

The outfit’s first new album since Metal Blade Records’ 2004-released Helping The World To See, VEHEMENCE comes storming back to the death metal circuit with a crushing new album which will surely see the band regaining their traction within the scene after their time off the grid. Forward Without Motion is the culmination of years of hard work and the collective desire to write the best songs and capture the best performances. Working on the songs off and on for several years between 2007 and 2011, VEHEMENCE began a methodical, painstaking tracking process for the new record between 2012 and 2014, the album’s guitars, bass, and vocals being recorded at the home studios of guitarists Bjorn Dannov and Kyle Moeller, with the drums being recorded at Villain Studios in Phoenix. When listening to Forward Without Motion, one will discover the refreshing sounds of a band creatively reborn and seasoned by experience. The album flows with a relentless, throat grabbing energy that never flags and begs for repeated spins. This cohesive power is nowhere more apparent than in the strength of the instrumental and vocal performances, which slash and hammer their way out of the speakers with a passion rarely found in the cold, mostly lifeless corpses that are most modern death metal recordings.

Forward Without Motion sees release through Battleground records on October 23rd one 180-gram black vinyl 2xLP in a gatefold package with a free download limited to 300 copies, as well as digipak CD and all digital platform, its cover art by Hal Rotter/Rotting Graphics (Atriarch, Inherit Disease, Barghest).
