The blackened legions of Exordium Mors return with a vengeance! After more than two decades of relentless chaos, the New Zealand-based force is set to release their ferocious new EP, Sworn to Heresy, on March 1st via Praetorian Sword Records—but you can hear it now in full exclusively at Invisible Oranges.
Invisible Oranges praised the band’s razor-sharp intensity: “Their riffs evolve from repeating thrash licks to jagged death metal within the span of a few bars. Clearly, Exordium Mors know there’s strength in numbers.”
Listen to Sworn to Heresy EP in its entirety here.
Exordium Mors comments: “Against the backdrop of having completed 20 years of existence, we now embark on a new chapter which sees us no longer as a 5 piece but rather a 4 piece where vocals are executed by 3 members and where the songwriting continues to evolve and be refined whilst still retaining the heaviness, vitriol and hostility which are cornerstones of the band’s sound.
“Sworn To Heresy” is not only a representation of things to come but a celebration of the undying spirit of metal that courses through our veins. 3 volatile hymns; written at a time of uncertainty and brought forward by sheer will!
At the start of this new era, we take our live assault on its first trek on European soil alongside Serbian Black Metal horde “Kolac”, under the banner of the “Horns Of Oblivion Tour” which will consist of several shows in Serbia, Bulgaria & Greece. This tour sees the band playing live for the very first time outside of New Zealand, Australia & Southeast Asia and this is only the beginning of things to come.”
Meanwhile, Exordium Mors currently storming storm European stages, bringing their face-ripping sound and mesmerizing stage presence to new audiences. Check out the remaining tour dates below:
27.02.2025 – OldSkulls Club – Sofia, Bulgaria w/ Kolac, Threat
28.02.2025 – Club Sixty Six Crew – Thessaloniki, Greece w/ Kolac, Melinoe
01.03.2025 – Ανδρομέδα μουσικό στέκι – Trikala, Greece Horns Up Festival
03.03.2025 – Architecture Rock Cafe – Athens, Greece w/ Enthroned Serpent
Forged with maniacal speed, blistering melody, and sheer violent brutality, Sworn to Heresy marks a bold new chapter for the band, following the departure of their original vocalist, Scourge. Now armed with a tripartite vocal attack featuring Santi, Black Mortum, and Assailant, their ferocity has reached an entirely new dimension.
Joining the lineup is The Nomad (Rvkkvs, Nullifier), whose annihilatory drumming pushes Exordium Mors to unprecedented speeds and dynamics. With crystal-clear production that sacrifices none of the band’s raw power, Sworn to Heresy bends and breaks metallic conventions, shaping their own diabolic design.
