Release Date: March 3, 2022
Location: Beirut, Lebanon
The 10-track studio album follows on from four new singles ‘BONE ORCHID’ reflecting dreams of a dead orchid, the ghost of a flower, grieving the death of mother nature: ‘THE MUTE, THE DEAF, THE BLIND’ depicting imprisonment in society, wishing for death: ‘OMINOUS’ depicting a paranoid patient, possessed by internal voices taking control, leading toward gruesome consequences: And finally ‘LEAD ME TO MY THRONE’, the animated music video unleashed to coincide with the album. A serial killer, talking about the things he has done, asking for redemption, asking the god above for forgiveness. Admitting he’s not in control of himself when he turns into a monster: “So Grim, So True, So Real” ……. Hallowed words that ring true for metalheads the world over, particularly for those living in far-flung corners of the earth where freedom of expression and socio-political upheaval makes it almost impossible to follow your passions.
Formed in 2014, the mission from the start was to create music in the vein of traditional and modern groove and thrash metal. The dystopian nature of 1980s and 1990s metal releases rang true for many a music fan in war – torn regions globally. This was no different, they in hearted the street spirit that many of those early metal classics were based upon and bridged it to meet their own reality. With two previous albums, numerous tours across Romania, Croatia, Hungary, Bulgaria, Serbia and beyond, and major festival appearance at the likes of Wacken and Metalhead Meeting under their belt, Phenomy are excited to be heading into 2022 with an even bigger future ahead of them, fueled by ‘Syndicate Of Pain’. The new album ‘Syndicate Of Pain’ coming March 3rd, 2022!

After years of brazilian tours, important shows alongside big names in world metal such as Dark Funeral, Gama Bomb, Krisiun, etc, a European tour that went through five countries, it was time for CRUCIFIXION BR to present its definitive work: “Human Decay”!
Successor to the acclaimed “Destroying The Fucking Disciples Of Christ” (2014), “Human Decay” is the second album by CRUCIFIXION BR and as well as the debut was recorded in January 2020 at the Hurricane Studio in Porto Alegre/RS Brazil and produced by vocalist/guitarist Maxx Guterres and uruguayan producer/guitarist Sebastian Carsin. Postponed for release in October 31st 2021 due to COVID-19. The album features special guest André Rod from brazilian Thrash Metal band ATTOMICA on the title track “Human Decay”, and the legend Dave Ingram (BENEDICTION, ex-BOLT THROWER) on “Bloody Fire Victory”. Also Sebastian Carsin recorded all the lead guitars in the album as a guest.The cover art for “Human Decay” is signed by Romulo Dias (SHAMAN, Edu Falaschi, Alírio Netto).
“Human Decay represents the natural evolution of Crucifixion BR and I’m very happy with it”, declares vocalist and guitarist Maxx Guterres. “We’ve kept the roots intact and continue to address the brutality of this style of music, but there is, in fact, an evolution both musically and in terms of lyrics. This is a stronger, more brutal record, with more Death Metal elements, but still with the presence of Black Metal in some aspects. Crucifixion BR is going down a more technical and intelligent path, I think the music is more creative, as well as the lyrics. The previous album “Destroying…” has a lot of old stuff, from the roots, has demo songs and new songs from the time, on Human Decay only two songs are old, “My Savior” and “A Few Lies Of Your Whole Light”, coincidentally are the ones which were released as singles and music videos. The lyrics of the first album addressed classic Black Metal themes, such as the criticism of the hypocrisy of the Catholic Church, anti-Christianity, a little bit about existential crisis, talking about death, while Human Decay is an evolution. Of course, we still keep on criticizing Christianity or any other type of religion and fanaticism, but we also focus on believing in ourselves, in our ideals, in our inner strength and without dogmas, without religion, which ends up transmitting to the fans a message of not giving up on your goals and dreams and trying to do the right thing. We always want evolution and, musically, to become more and more brutal.”
