“I Will Fade Away” is the brooding new single from Italian blackened crust force OTHISMOS. The song, now streaming exclusively at Toilet Ov Hell, is the latest single preceding the band’s gnarled new album, “Sottrazione”, available on December 16th, 2024. Stream the track at THIS LOCATION.

“Sottrazione” marks the band’s third album since their inception in 2009, following “L’odio necessario” (2015) and “Separazione” (2018), and it’s their first album entirely in English.

The first single “Cops Are not People” is also streaming HERE.

“Sottrazione” comprises eight tracks that defy genre boundaries: OTHISMOS continue on their unique musical journey, bridging crust, black metal, post-hardcore, sludge, and other metallic elements. Over the years, their sound has drawn comparisons to an array of bands, from Nasum to High on Fire, capturing the vast scope of their influences.

The new album was recorded with longtime friend and collaborator Emanuele “Bio” Ferrari, and then mixed and mastered by Danilo Battocchio (Ponte del Diavolo, Hierophant, Tons, and more).

The band shares:

“After a period of inactivity and a new drummer joining our lineup, we’re starting fresh with new ideas. We’ve dialed back some of the black metal sound that shaped our previous album and leaned back towards our punk and crust roots, yet allowing more space for melody. We worked by subtraction, embracing a ‘less is more’ approach. ‘Sottrazione’ is furious, pitch-dark, and extreme, because that’s who we are. We don’t fit into any one category, and we’ve never tried to. What we hope for is that ‘Sottrazione’ leaves listeners with the raw, visceral impact that we aim to convey.
Nothing gets better, everything rots and fades, we are all insignificant and destined to be forgotten. All that’s left is to face reality and exorcise the futility of our days.”
