Finnish death metal quartet GRAVE HEX are streaming their new EP, “Domain of Foul Rebirths”, in full through Death Metal Promotion, ahead of its release on October 30, 2026, via Night Terrors Records on cassette and Cavernous Records on CD. Following last year’s debut album, “Vermian Death”, the five-track release pushes the band’s grotesque vision into heavier and more intricate structures.

While retaining the physical weight and punk attitude that have defined GRAVE HEX, the EP finds the band pushing their writing into fresh territory. Groove plays a more prominent role throughout the material, giving the songs a heavier pulse, while several compositions expand their range of moods and registers without losing their grim death metal identity. The result is a concise and forceful return, packed with decay, momentum and enough fresh ideas to make “Domain of Foul Rebirths” feel like a genuine new chapter rather than a simple continuation.
The band comment:
“When writing the material for ‘Domain of Foul Rebirths’ we stuck with the style that we established during the creation of our previous record ‘Vermian Death’ while taking the musical compositions and tonality to a more complex level. We used mostly the same musical gear than before but production-wise we took a new experimental approach and the result turned out simultaneously recognizable and more refined than before.
The central themes of ‘Domain of Foul Rebirths’ revolve around the bizarre and execrable methods of self-destruction and rebirth. Each song examines beings or entities reborn from foul or disgusting ways of torment; self-disembowelment, being eaten alive, esoteric surgery and other ways trying to reach postmortal change”.
Tracklist:
1. Vile Eclosion
2. Leech Eater
3. Sewer Embalmment
4. Master’s Lair
5. Apparitions Of Flesh
GRAVE HEX is a Helsinki-based death metal quartet, formed in 2024. After releasing their debut album “Vermian Death” via Night Terrors Records and Cavernous Records in 2025, the band has toured in Finland and witnessed a growing interest in their putrid presentation of Finnish death metal, performing in events like Rot in Peace Metal Fest and Helsinki Death Fest. Soon after releasing their debut release, the band recorded their newest repulsive offering of death metal in the form of an EP named “Domain of Foul Rebirths”, showcasing the more mad and macabre songwriting of the band. As was with their debut, the EP was recorded and mixed by the band’s own Matti Vainionpää and mastered by Greg Wilkinson at Earhammer Studios. The cover art was once again created by the master of vile art, Slimeweaver.
