French cosmic death metal band BREEDING CHAOS have shared two more songs from their second album, "Dimensional Demise": "Architect of Chaos" and the title track. Both are streaming now on Great Dane Records' Bandcamp, alongside the first single, "Cradle of the New Suns", which we covered last month.
The band present the pair as two sides of the same universe. "Architect of Chaos", sixth on the eleven-track album, is the big statement track: massive and tightly structured, built on the mix of melodic discipline and rhythmic precision that defined their 2024 debut, "Distant Planets", and scaled up from it. "Dimensional Demise", ninth in the running order, is the deeper cut, atmospheric, progressive and darker, with the band's astrophysical concept of interstellar phenomena and colliding worlds woven into the songwriting itself.
The label's pitch sums the approach up as dense, groove-heavy and atmospheric: modern death metal built on weight, memorable structures and impact rather than on speed or genre clichés. The reference points are DARK TRANQUILLITY, IN FLAMES, HYPOCRISY, SOILWORK and TEXTURES, with a nod to the cosmic ambition of BLOOD INCANTATION.
The album's Bandcamp page also credits a guest: saxophonist Vince Wilquin of fellow French band FRACTAL UNIVERSE. The lineup is Lucas on drums, JE on lead guitar, Malo on bass and Bru on guitar and growls. The cover art is by Adrien Bousson. Great Dane Records' Bandcamp page now lists the release for November 27, and the CD is up for pre-order.
