Brandon Bordman’s one-man progressive death metal project, The Grand Myth , announces the release of the first single Through the River Styx on December 5th, leading into the full-length album Of Vultures and Dragons set for January 23rd. Known for blending jaw-dropping technical prowess with immersive storytelling, The Grand Myth continues to push the boundaries of what metal can be.

Of Vultures and Dragons is a fully realized concept album inspired by the brutal and vivid world of the Primitive War novels. Bordman explains:

"Of Vultures and Dragons is the fully realized vision of what I wanted to do with The Devils of Vulture Valley. It is an all-encompassing and uncompromising concept album about the beasts of the Primitive War universe and the men who are forced to live and fight with them. I wanted to capture all the emotions I felt while reading through the novels and I think this collection of songs will work as a fantastic soundtrack to anyone who dares to step foot into the violent and unrelenting world of Primitive War."

The album features a stellar lineup of guest musicians and voice actors, including Nizar Ibrahim, PhD ( Of Vultures and Dragons ), Johnnie Wallace ( Father Tyrant ), David Ralyea ( Through the River Styx ), and more, bringing additional depth and intensity to the record. Bordman handled all instrumentals himself, with mixing by Georg Cotta and Brandon Bordman, and mastering by Neil Schneider.

The single Through the River Styx is now available for streaming and pre-save via https://distrokid.com/hyperfollow/thegrandmyth/through-the-river-styx-feat-david-ralyea

Fans can expect an album that not only showcases genre-defying progressive death metal but also serves as a fully immersive narrative experience.
