FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

VOIDMAKER ANNOUNCE DEBUT ALBUM “A COLD, UNYIELDING UNIVERSE” OUT MAY 25, 2026 VIA WITCHES BREW RECORDS

Boston, MA / Washington, D.C. based sci-fi thrash death metal project VOIDMAKER is set to unleash their full-length debut, A Cold, Unyielding Universe , arriving May 25, 2026 via Witches Brew Records.

Built by veteran musicians Joe McAnaney (guitars, drums, bass) and Tom McRann (vocals), VOIDMAKER delivers a sharp-edged fusion of blackened thrash, death metal precision, and progressive scale. The result is a high-intensity concept record that doesn’t just hit hard, it tells a story while doing it.

A Cold, Unyielding Universe explores humanity’s future under siege from rogue AIs, unstable Jovian scientists, and ancient extraterrestrial entities lurking beyond known space. It’s a cold run through the cosmos where survival is never guaranteed and evolution comes at a cost. Think expansion, extinction, and everything in between.

This is not background music. This is a full-on transmission from a collapsing future.

Across ten tightly constructed tracks, VOIDMAKER build a cinematic arc of cosmic warfare and human fragility, wrapped in razor riffing, brutal vocal delivery, and atmosphere that feels like deep space with the oxygen cut off.

The album features striking cover art by Adam Burke of Nightjar Illustrations, with additional narrative layout design reinforcing the concept-driven experience. Mixing and mastering were handled by Rob Kukla at Obsidian Studios, with the instrumental piece “Starfall” contributed by Sarah McAnaney-Knight.
