FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Then We Died Unleashes “Broken Skull Opera” – A Ferocious Throwback to 90s-Era Grindcore, Death, and Black Metal

Coming May 21st via CDN Records

LOUISVILLE, KY — Prepare for a punishing blast of raw aggression and old-school extremity as Then We Died erupts onto the underground metal scene with their savage debut album, Broken Skull Opera , out May 21st through CDN Records .

A guttural scream from the grave of 90s underground metal, Broken Skull Opera channels the spirit and savagery of legends like Repulsion , Asphyx , and Impaled Nazarene . This is no polished, modern metal – this is pure, unfiltered brutality that harks back to the glory days of grind, death, and black metal's most menacing forms.

Then We Died is a Louisville-based supergroup comprised of extreme metal veterans:

Stevo (Impetigo, Surgikill) – vocals

Mike May (Sinistrum, Abominant) – bass

Jim Higgins (Abominant, Assisting Sorrow) – drums

Jerry Barksdale (The Promise Of Plague, Empyrean Asunder) – guitars

Featuring Chris Leffler (Stonecutters, Assisting Sorrow) – guest guitars

From the grind-fueled chaos of “Scenes From A Macabre Landfill” to the eerie, blood-soaked groove of “Face Down in the Mud Covered in Blood,” Broken Skull Opera delivers relentless riffs, pummeling rhythms, and bloodcurdling vocals that bleed authenticity. Each track is a violent homage to a time when metal was dangerous, ugly, and gloriously underground.

Fans of the early extreme metal movement, rejoice. This one’s for you.
