Steely sci-fi themed black metal release from the US band
Imperialist have come up with their most aggressive sounding material on this EP release. It’s a lot more thrashy, and steely, while somehow retaining their sound. You don’t want to sleep on this release! Toilet ov Hell premiered a brand new track from the release which can be found AT THIS LINK.
“In “Echoed Demise,” Imperialist tells the story of an endlessly recurring battle. Thrashy sci-fi black metal swirls and swells around them again and again while the once-joyful clash of battle curdles into torment… The relentless pummel of the drums drive home the theme of an inescapable hell, while the riffs show the initial excitement of the fight.”

Sci-fi themed black metal band Imperialist re-analyse their sound on this EP, tracing their roots and fortifying their sound to make it their most potent and lethal material yet. All the elements that made the band known around the galaxy are there; they’ve only made their sonic output sharper and tighter and it’s also among their fastest and most aggressive material yet. Despite that, they haven’t alienated the sentient melodic aspect of their music which is used tastefully on this release. In what comes as a departure from their previous style of artworks, the artwork for Quantum is conspicuously dark and menacing, aptly reflecting the mood of the music. With steely determination, Imperialist are soaring ahead, sparing us a glimpse into their plans for the future where an impregnable new full length release is taking shape.
