Invisible Oranges recently did a premiere for technical/brutal/dissonant death metal band Atræ Bilis’ ‘A Ceremony of Sectioning’, the final track from their latest album, Divinihility. The Invisible Oranges premiere can be reached AT THIS LINK, and among a lot of other things, this is what they had to say:
“Atræ Bilis’ greatest strength is knowing where to hold themselves back. Though wildly technical, the band’s death metal eschews the farthest reaches of rhythmic chaos in favor of remaining head-bangingly compelling.“
Also, additionally, we are glad to announce that Divinihility is also now available in Limited Edition-version Wooden Box sets, up for grabs in three gorgeous colour variants. You will find more details regarding these spectacular-looking products and buying them here AT THIS LINK.

Atræ Bilis from Canada are ingesting the best elements of all the styles of death metal and spewing forth an amalgam that turns the genre inside out. There is no template for their kind of music. It’s wildly unpredictable but remains coherent and catchy despite it all. It has traces of technical death, brutal death, dark death and even dissonant death, with a tinge of melody and atmosphere to top things off. This is an intense shapeshifter of an album that remains engrossing from start to finish, without losing the core sound and aesthetics. The album feels like an exercise in what’s great about the genre without adhering to a particular style for too long and thereby sidestepping its trappings too. ‘Divinihility’ will mark a new chapter in engaging, furious, forward-thinking death metal that sets the tone for other similar-minded bands on the label such as Depravity, Cutterred Flesh, Replicant and more.
