THEN WE DIED Unleash Broken Skull Opera and Drop NSFW Video for Title Track – A Blistering Tribute to 90s-Era Grindcore, Death, and Black Metal

Louisville, KY – OUT NOW via CDN Records — Louisville’s extreme metal juggernaut Then We Died has just dropped their crushing debut album Broken Skull Opera — alongside a brand-new NSFW music video for the bone-splitting title track . Out now via CDN Records , the album is a savage return to the filthy, feral roots of 90s grindcore, death metal, and black metal, drawing sonic comparisons to Repulsion, Asphyx, and Impaled Nazarene.

Formed by a crew of seasoned underground metal veterans, Then We Died delivers a relentless, old-school assault packed with grim atmosphere, guttural fury, and unrelenting speed.

Lineup:

Stevo (Impetigo, Surgikill) – vocals

Mike May (Sinistrum, Abominant) – bass

Jim Higgins (Abominant, Assisting Sorrow) – drums

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

Chris Leffler (Stonecutters, Assisting Sorrow) – guest guitars

The NSFW video for the title track “Broken Skull Opera” is a visceral visual nightmare—equal parts gore-soaked art and raw aggression—perfectly mirroring the album’s unhinged energy. Viewer discretion is strongly advised.

Broken Skull Opera is now available on all major streaming platforms and physical formats via CDN Records .

If you crave the putrid glory of old-school extreme metal, this is your new anthem. Then We Died doesn't just resurrect the sound—they drag it, screaming, into the present.
