Known as the underground death metal philosophers, Contrarian are primed and focused, readying their sixth studio release. The band returns to its roots with founding members Jim Tasikas and George Kollias, delivering an intricate and relentless exploration of progressive death metal.
Escaping Depravity will be released through Willowtip Records.
