PSYCROPTIC (Australia) - The Pulse Of Annihilation (sealed LP copy) (2026) Released by Metal Blade Records on Amber Marble "World Ablaze" gatefold vinyl.
 
Tasmania’s undisputed titans of Technical Death Metal return with their 9th full-length studio album, "The Pulse Of Annihilation." Delivering a clinic in surgical precision, ferocious speed, and neck-snapping groove.
 
Building on the bone-crushing foundation of 2022's "Divine Council," PSYCROPTIC double down on the razor-sharp riffs and unpredictable rhythmic shifts that have defined their signature sound for over two decades.
 
Joe Haley’s intricate, lightning-fast guitar work anchors the record, effortlessly weaving intricate leads around Dave Haley’s relentless, hyper-precise drumming. Frontman Jason Peppiatt delivers a fierce vocal performance, balancing gut-wrenching growls with modern groove-laden rhythms that push the band's sonic aggression to new heights.
