Brazilian Death Metal Veterans Unleash Three Tracks of Crushing Extremity on July 17, 2026
Genre: Brutal Death Metal
For Fans Of: Hate Eternal, Morbid Angel, Krisiun
After a ten-year absence from the scene, Brazilian brutal death metal force Laconist returns with their devastating new EP, Where Being Ends, I Begin , arriving July 17, 2026. The release marks a powerful new chapter for a band built on the foundation of uncompromising aggression, technical precision, and a deep respect for the extreme metal pioneers that shaped their sound.
Founded in 2007 by A. Neil, Laconist was created with the mission of honoring influential acts such as Angelcorpse, Centurian, and Hate Eternal while forging their own path within the brutal death metal underground. During their early years, the band released two full-length albums, one demo, and one EP before entering a decade-long hiatus in 2016.
Now, Laconist has returned with a renewed lineup and a sharpened vision. A. Neil remains the sole original member, joined by Zé Misanthrope, who has helped redefine and expand the band's legacy within the brutal death metal scene. To capture the intensity and power required for this comeback, the band enlisted Felipe Veiga as a session drummer to perform all drum parts on the new recording.
Recorded between October 2025 and April 2026, Where Being Ends, I Begin delivers three relentless tracks of savage riffs, crushing rhythms, and extreme vocal brutality. The EP was mixed by Zé Misanthrope and mastered by Cássio Zambotto, ensuring a massive and punishing production that matches the band's return after ten years away.
Adding even more firepower to the release, the track "Vermiforming" features a special guest vocal appearance by Kyle Ball of Lysergic and former member of Wake and Kataplexis, bringing another layer of intensity to an already devastating offering.
"After a 10-year hiatus, Laconist returns to the battlefield with a new chapter of Brazilian death metal brutality. Where Being Ends, I Begin represents the rebirth of the band and the continuation of a legacy built on extreme music."
Currently unsigned, Laconist is also working on their next full-length album and is seeking a label partner interested in helping bring their next evolution of brutality to a wider audience.
Where Being Ends, I Begin will be available on all major digital platforms on July 17, 2026 .
