Miami, Florida death/thrash metal trio INSCRIBED are set to unleash their highly anticipated debut full-length album, Upon the Twisted Throne , on June 19, 2026 via Awakening Records. The album marks a major step forward for the band, expanding their razor sharp, progressive death/thrash attack into even more ambitious and extreme territory.

Drawing influence from legendary acts such as Atheist, Hellwitch, Sadus, Cynic, and Nocturnus, INSCRIBED deliver a blistering fusion of technical precision, chaotic riffing, and progressive songwriting rooted firmly in the spirit of early 90s Florida death metal. Despite the members’ young ages, the band continues to push a sound that feels both classic in spirit and ferociously forward-looking in execution.

Formed in 2021 by bassist Evie Austin and drummer/vocalist Lucas Moore, INSCRIBED quickly carved out a name in the South Florida underground with their 2022 demo and 2024 debut EP In Silent Oblivion . After recruiting guitarist Mario Alvarez, the trio tightened into a relentless live force across Florida, sharpening the material that would become Upon the Twisted Throne .

The new album pushes their progressive death/thrash formula into deeper extremes, balancing intricate musicianship with raw aggression and strong, memorable songwriting. A bass-driven compositional approach gives the record a distinct identity, with Evie Austin’s lightning-fast runs and fingerstyle precision cutting through Mario Alvarez’s razor-edged guitar work and Lucas Moore’s punishing drumming and vocal delivery.

“ Upon the Twisted Throne acts as a bold step forward for Inscribed, continuing the progressive death-thrash style the band debuted with In Silent Oblivion into an even more intense direction,” says the band. “The album sees us expanding our range of influences while pushing technical ability and melodic dynamics further than before.”

The album’s lead single and video, “Machinery of War,” is out now. A longtime live staple, the track opens with a chaotic technical bassline before erupting into a high-velocity assault of progressive death and thrash metal precision. Written collaboratively by all three members, the song explores the disturbing fate of a mecha pilot trapped inside a dying war machine, drawing on themes of war, mortality, and human suffering.

Other standout tracks include “On the Stage of Death,” an ambitious multi-section piece inspired by Kentaro Miura’s Berserk , which examines religious extremism through shifting emotional and sonic landscapes, and “Still Time Passes,” a haunting, mid-paced composition exploring the psychological horror of perceived eternal isolation and the fragility of consciousness.

Upon the Twisted Throne features:
Evie Austin — Bass Guitar
Lucas Moore — Drums & Vocals
Mario Alvarez — Guitar

Additional lead guitar by Fernando Calero.

The album was engineered and mixed by Ferny Coipel at The Shack North, with guitar and bass tracking by John Sample at Sathanas Studios. Mastering was handled by Chris Barcia. Artwork was created by Stephanie D-Sorensen, with additional design contributions from Raphael Sanchez, Deborah Moore, Beatriz Freire, Gabriel Caggiano, and Arioch.

Upon the Twisted Throne will be released June 19, 2026 via Awakening Records.

For fans of Atheist, Hellwitch, Sadus, Cynic, Nocturnus.
