PRESS RELEASE:
LUST OF DECAY – ENTOMBED IN SEWAGE
LABEL: COMATOSE MUSIC
RELEASE DATE: DECEMBER 12th 2025
In the quietude beneath the city streets, the silence broken only by the slow dripping of polluted water and the chittering voices of the rats, in this forgotten place of filth and stench, they find a strange kind of peace. The screaming is over, the torment is complete, there is only endless sleep for these abused and broken bodies. And if the rats take sustenance from their bruised and lacerated flesh it is a gift they give without resentment. Embracing each other, entwined in cold comfort, they lie forever entombed in sewage…
Twenty five years since their tale of terror began and far too long a time since the release of their last album back in 2006, the demigods of death, legends of the underworld, Lust Of Decay have returned! They carry with them, in their bloodstained, disease riddled hands something bleak and soul destroying, ten new commandments of depravity and tragedy, new incitements to violence and degradation – their long, long awaited fourth full length album – Entombed in Sewage. From the first shocking moments of opening track, ‘Parasitic Exsanguination’, twisted riffs ensnare you and vocals from the other side of death engulf you. Drums deliver absolute oblivion and though the tempos shift the impact is never less than decimating. You can feel the knowledge, experience and dedication to the pursuit of brutality and extremity in every dextrous and deadly note. Featuring current and ex members of Atrocious Abnormality, Cesspool of Vermin, Coathanger Abortion and Shuriken Cadaveric Entwinement in their ranks, Lust Of Decay know more than a thing or two about the desolate arts of death. There are so many great riffs throughout this album and the drumming is simply phenomenal, not just driving the songs forward but playing a vital role in their dynamics and development. While the brutality is unquestionably unrelenting, there is so much going on in songs like the feast of rot and horror that is first single ‘Nourishing The Swine’. The song writing that has created ‘Fetal Contamination Process’ is several steps above most of Lust Of Decay’s genre contemporaries in its fascinating complexity. Every song is a definitive example of brutal death metal at its musically proficient, wickedly imaginative and shocking best – and the three final songs, ‘Order 66’, ‘Desiccate The Epithelium’ and title track ‘Entombed In Sewage’ are simply incredible; a triptych of awesome atmosphere, magnificent destruction and nightmares brought to life. Entombed In Sewage will be gate crashing the end of year lists for the best that brutal death has offered up in 2025.
Mixed and mastered by Tony Tipton (Between The Killings, Necrotic Disgorgement, Reap etc) Entombed In Sewage has a surprisingly bright and vibrant sound that brings every element, every weapon in the Lust Of Decay armoury into play, to tremendous effect. The cover artwork that adorns this malignant offering, created by Daemorph Art (Aborted Fetus, Avulsed, Holycide etc), is a masterpiece of grim despondency – the perfect visual depiction of the overwhelming music that lies within. Irresistible in every sense of the word, Entombed In Sewage will be unleashed upon the world by Comatose Music on December 12th – a knife from the dark into the throat of the festive season.
