Obliteration is imminent: As The World Dies return with their triumphant second offering. 'Nebula' is a colossal lesson in crushing death metal and cosmic mysticism. “‘Nebula’ is the quintessence of what As The World Dies is all about,” band leader and scene veteran Scott Fairfax says. “We pushed our musical boundaries and wanted to create an album that was both brutal and thought-provoking. It’s heavier, darker and more profound than anything we’ve done before.”
While we go about our petty business, leading our small and insignificant life under the sun, death is hurtling towards us at breakneck speed: An asteroid named Apophis will come in very close contact with planet Earth in 2029, one day it will surely hit earth! Aptly named after the Egyptian God of dissolution, darkness and chaos, it has the power to obliterate life as we know it. Seriously: it doesn’t get any more death metal than this. Scott Fairfax is well aware of that. The death metal veteran of Memoriam fame is back with his other vehicle of death and destruction, As The World Dies. Three years after their earth-shattering and star-studded debut 'Agonist', he’s taking things into space with “Nebula”, a cosmic death metal requiem of colossal proportions.
Brought to life and recorded by Scott Fairfax in his home studio, Riff Central, this isn’t so much of a band effort and rather the work of a dedicated individual, live will be a different story!! Piissed off by pretty much everything going on around him. Angry, haunting and miserable songs are, though. 'Nebula' is full of them. An album like an uncompromising alien threat to our planet, as unrelenting and indifferent as an asteroid. The end is coming, folks. Let’s all enjoy it while we can.
