Terminal Nation

Echoes Of The Devil’s Den

20 Buck Spin

***ON LIMITED RED / ORANGE MERGE VINYL!!! Since releasing the first Terminal Nation album Holocene Extinction in 2020, the USA’s simmering divisions have only widened, factions hardened, compromise disintegrated. The band’s incendiary new album Echoes Of The Devil’s Den epitomizes that boiling rage, once again appearing on the eve of a recurring nightmare election cycle of fossilized 20th century relics. The Terminal Nation battering ram has at its core outrageously heavy mid-paced riffing and bulldozing breakdowns, taken to new levels of extreme brutality, over which Stan Liszewski’s vocal venom radiates the seething anger of a population at wits end. Yet beyond that punishing substructure Terminal Nation’s songwriting chops have evolved considerably as evidenced on songs like “Embers Of Humanity,” which injects an epic heavy metal flair within its balladry, building to stadium-esque crescend. On single “Merchants Of Bloodshed,” the band splice in anthemic, bordering on radio-friendly, clean singing courtesy of Jesse Leach (Killswitch Engage), just one of many guest vocal appearances on the album. Lyrically, throughout Echoes Of the Devil’s Den, the band lash out with both the scathing societal critique for which they’re well known and also a more intimately reflective narrative that draws upon some massive personal upheavals endured in the preceding years. Forged in the fires of tribulation, Terminal Nation’s Echoes Of The Devil’s Den demolishes with the force of an erupting volcano, burning to ash the falsity of the age.

Holocene Extinction

***NOW ON LIMITED NEON GREEN VINYL!!! America is a tinderbox. Lockdowns, pandemic, police brutality, kleptocracy, the orange menace. The injustice system is alive and well. Since day one Terminal Nation has been shining a light on it all through their crushing music, point blank lyrics, merch and media, lashing out at institutional corruption and racist power structures. And not from a liberal coastal enclave where it’s a generally welcome message but from Deep Red Arkansas. Now with the new album Holocene Extinction at hand, Terminal Nation return at a pivotal moment, where lines are being drawn and the possibilities of compromise are going up in smoke. Like fuel to the fires of dissent the band’s brutally heavy amalgam of metallic hardcore, death metal and power violence eviscerates with unforgiving sincerity the recognizable and the insidious forces propping up the White Supremacy machine. Events are moving fast now, the dominoes are falling and everyday it’s more apparent a reckoning is at hand. War is upon us and a Holocene Extinction is a likely outcome, because one cannot save a world that refuses to be saved...
