Released via Rude Awakening Records, Leave to Nowhere showcases AydrA’s evolution as musicians and storytellers, pushing the boundaries of technical death metal while delivering a deeply resonant narrative.

A Conceptual Masterpiece
Leave to Nowhere is a concept album that narrates the harrowing journey of a migrant fleeing Eritrea in search of a better life in Europe.

AydrA’s Winning Formula
The album was recorded and mixed at WR Studios by AydrA’s drummer Marco Bianchella (also of Gunfire) and mastered by Paolo Ojetti at Castaway Studios (Infernal Poetry). The stunning artwork, titled Delirio, was crafted by Luca Morici and captures the raw emotion and thematic depth of the music.
