Gutvoid: 2nd album 'Liminal Shrines' out in March

Canadian death metallers Gutvoid are getting ready for the release of the sophomore full-length album, 'Liminal Shrines'. It is set to be conjured from the void on March 20, via Profound Lore Records.

Track listing:
1. Ruinous Gateways
2. Spell Reliquary
3. Of Smothering Sea
4. Umbriel's Door
5. Lead Me beyond the Sleeping I
6. Chasm of Displaced Souls

Gutvoid was formed in Toronto, Ontario by Daniel Bonofiglio (Guitar) and Brendan Dean (Guitar and Vocals), soon followed by Justin Boehm (Bass) and D. W. Lee (Drums). Blending modern death and doom soundscapes with progressive rock and metal songwriting foundations, Gutvoid creates a monster seething with gut-wrenching riffs, cavernous vocals and prog virtuosity. With the release of the 'Astral Bestiary' EP in 2019, the debut album 'Durance of Lightless Horizons' in 2022 and their latest output, the 'Breathing Obelisk' EP in 2024, Gutvoid has continued to build on their sound, focusing on more elaborate yet intentional song structures while deepening the depth of their aggressiveness and technicality. The upcoming full length album 'Liminal Shrines', the first half of a two-part concept, showcases the band at their most intricate, aggressive, and creative thus far, further expanding and building on their cosmic horror infused atmospheres and origins.

The album was recorded at Boxcar Sound Recording, Mount Wexler Studio and Dystonic Sounds, mixed and mastered by Greg Dawson and BWC Studios and features cover art by Kjell Åge Meland.

The album will be out on CD, 12" vinyl (2 colour versions: citrine and garnet) and digital editions.
