@@MalcolmPugh Hear me out... What if, somebody just sat you down somewhere cozy with food/drink and whatever else, and you got to just talk about the lore and all you had to do was talk, not make a video??? \m/
I like both bands equally. They both tick different buttons for me. Inferi for melodic death metal and archspire for tech. This album is 11/10 though just pure mastery.
Well I'm listening for the first time and instead of the sweet transition I got a minute of non-skippable awful French ads... Thank you, I saw this comment and went back for it and it is indeed sweet. Cheers from France! 🍻
@@MalcolmPugh Thank you very much man! Saw your comment on the Arsis song you played, that's what ended up bringing me here. I'm really loving this! It's been a while since I got that fast into a band. Cheers!
In my top three favourite bands. No other death metal band sounds as EPIC. It may be physically impossible to sound more epic than Inferi. This is more epic than all the power metal bands in the world put together. It's basically melodic technical power death metal.
@@marktaylor7162 Ever heard of Wintersun? They're basically that, Epic Melodic Death Metal and their last release is fantastic. Extreme, brutal, technical, musical, etc. Just discovered Inferi and they sound like a middle ground between TBDM and Wintersun and I like it very much. Cheers from France! 🍻
I thought The Path os Apotheosis could never be toped. I never was so glad to be wrong! Stevie Elric is, as always, a monster of a vocalist and lyric writer(the section that references the "ghosts in the sky" made me goosebumps, no joke) Malcolm and Mike are guitar gods, period. Spencer is the warmachine embodiment, wich is no surprise. The Bringer of Great Pleasure brings the greatest of pleasures. This album is so good i never wanted it to end. Thank you so much Inferi for sharing your art with us, mere mortals! Hope i can catch you guys on tour one day. Stay safe!
I'm STOKED that you picked up on that reference right away!! The first line was something that I had written before even fully fleshing out the story of this one with Malcolm. I feel that it's a solid callback. Thank you so much dude!
@@stevieboiser2304 I wasn't disappointed at all. Vile Genesis is a masterpiece, and it totally lifted my spirit overall. Thank you for all you continue to do.
Was blessed to have the chance to see these guys live when I went to go see nekrogoblikon. Was so happy to know that I found a new favorite band when I left the venue. These dudes absolutely killed it! 🤘
Inferi is one of the most prolific bands in metal those days, every album is such a masterpiece ... can t wait to hear the whole album . . . the Ep last year was soooo good !!!! i m sure this album is gonna be terrific, technical and evil as we like !!!!! EDIT ; after 1 full listen . 666% quality has expected. all hails INFUCKINGRI !!!!
@@leroy92TX their tour last year with Black Crown and Arkaik. I'm seeing the same tour you are in a couple months with Archspire. It's a different tour, no worries.
Hm? While I personally really like this album (top 3 of 2021), I wouldn't even call it Inferi's best (Revenant would be my pick). How come you like it this much? :)
I genuinely don't have anything I can say that can express the magnitude of how blown away I am. I literally cannot fathom Malcolm and Mike's guitar prowess but also their insane technicality and creativity. And literally everyone in the band has been improving. As a guitarist I always pay most attention to that but the vocals, drums and bassist are amazing as well. By far my favorite band. They somehow manage to blow me away more and more with every release.
I am so thankful I met these guys in the Glasgow Faces of Death tour show. It was an absolute pleasure and a revelation to me. Trying to catch up with what I've missed all these years. @Inferi if you're reading this, one of the crazy Greek guys you met that night.
The first time I listened to Inferi was when they released "The Path of Apotheosis." What a fucking masterpiece it was. And this one is just as great. Loving your new music!
Okay what the fuck guys this is a massive step up over Of Sunless Realms thanks for years of incredible music this is easily my most anticipated album of 2021 and it blew me away. Favorite band by fucking far and album of the year without question
This one is tied in anticipation with Archspire this year. Malcolm I hope your buddy Dean and company worked as hard as you guys did! Can’t wait for my CD to get here
I just did the same thing. I told my job I have a doctor's appointment... uh yeuh a doctor's appointment to listen to some new Inferi ! I'm working 8am-1pm though.. originally was supposed to work, 10am-3pm
The Devil would sell his soul to Inferi to be half as powerful as they are. Another masterpiece from the bois, can't wait to get my pre-order in the mail and (hopefully one day soon) see y'all in person once again. Thanks so much for blessing our ears with this magic ❤️
i have yet to see anyone comment about how the first song starts with the riff from the end of The Path of Apotheosis. tipped off the anticipation sunday real nice
after a few listen, I feel like the band has evolved and changed a lot since Revenant. The last EP was a only the beginning of a new era, this feels like a rebirth, on a path to even more mature, heavy and melodic music. I'm so stoked and exalted for this year, tech death has been relentless, as their music. This album is straight fire, my only disappointment is that it isn't long enough. But the repeat button will be hit like crazy so.. That riff of Vile Genesis, the vibe and ending of Heirs Of The Descent, all the riffs, everything is beyond amazing. Thank you for such great music :)
Even though I really want to hear the whole record, because I want my "cherry popped" via my CD player in my house or car, I still clicked on it for the view & like, but refuse to indulge myself until full appreciation.
This is extremely technical and esoteric. As I listen, I know not what is around the next corner. This album is surprising to me how "OG style Inferi" it is. But also extremely different from anything you have ever created. You guys are so amazing at what you do and we as fans are blessed to an elite degree to have experienced your musical creations. You are legends.
My copy finally came in the mail last night so I had to come here to say this is hands down my favorite Inferi to date and while I’ve loved all their past albums this one blew me away. Thank you Inferi and Artisan Era!
A few copies of vinyl have been restocked on the merch store. Get them while you can. tinyurl.com/vilegenesis
Ordered! Maelstrom variant!
@@austiniscoolyo 😍😍😍😍😍
Exaltation Variant made me ring the coffer.

We thank you all so much for the immense amount of support! What was your favorite track from Vile Genesis?
Its hard to choose when the whole album is a banger 🤘🏾
Carving Thy Kingdom 💖🤘
Carving their kingdom
From Exile to Exaltation o/ , see you guys in Vienna at January (hopefully)
favorite song is...um... yes
This brings me great pleasure.

This album cures cancer
These dudes wake up everyday and choose fucking perfection
Heart emoji!
@@MalcolmPugh heart emojj on all members of the band!
😍@@sheepolata4688
Absolute truth 🤘👹🤘
I now want a book on all the Inferi lore
So much lore, Alex. I could do a 2-3 hour video on all the lore and adjacent lore inspiration. I will never do it, but if I did, I could. haha
@@MalcolmPugh Write a book maybe? I just got a new Kindle lol. Would love to lean back and read Inferi lore while listening to Inferi.
@@MalcolmPugh Hear me out... What if, somebody just sat you down somewhere cozy with food/drink and whatever else, and you got to just talk about the lore and all you had to do was talk, not make a video??? \m/
@@ulvsark sounds rad
@@MalcolmPughPlease do it!
I don't understand how u can write something this good
Recommended by my favourite android. This album makes me want to smash madness buttons all day
Let the riffs come! ☄️
This is the album equivalent of watching the Evil Dead 2 for the first time.
:)
This band doesn't know the meaning of the words 'bad album'. Its gonna a masterpiece just like the others no question.
I like both bands equally. They both tick different buttons for me. Inferi for melodic death metal and archspire for tech. This album is 11/10 though just pure mastery.
They dont even have a bad song😩😩😩
im kind of having a stroke trying to read this
Hope you make it through ok👍
8:07 this is so heavy it's funny
This brings me great Andrew..
hahahaha
Underrated as hell. It's a tech masterpiece.
The masters have returned from their travels abroad 🤘🏻🤘🏻
The way the first track picked up from Path of Apotheosis in the beginning gave me goosebumps.
WoOOOW. what an amazing discover! For once, youtube's algorithm did not fuck up. 🖤
how the fuck can this not have a million more views, absolute masterpiece, we as humans are privileged to hear such music! thanks inferi!
Needs more shares ;)
Thanks dude!
Wow this album is fucking perfection.
INSANELY UNFATHOMABLY NASTY BLACKENED EPIC TECH-MELODEATH! 🦾🦾🦾
HOLY HELL I DIDN'T THINK OF SUNLESS REALMS COULD BE TOPPED AND YOU GUYS LITERALLY JUST "HOLD MY BEER"
Thank you!!
We actually started recording this album right when OSR dropped. It was a very busy year haha.
@@stevieboiser2304 I can tell! You're very welcome. Thank you guys for such a beautiful, inspirational piece.
That middle section of Carving Thine Kingdom is just... *chefs kiss*
Inferi remain consistent as ever
Yeah, a Tchaikovsky amount of consistent.
Love the transition from The Path of Apotheosis
Didn't even notice the transition to maelstrom prison THIS SHIT SLAPPIN BOIS 🥵🥵
It was important for them to be linked and I'm glad it worked!
Well I'm listening for the first time and instead of the sweet transition I got a minute of non-skippable awful French ads...
Thank you, I saw this comment and went back for it and it is indeed sweet.
Cheers from France! 🍻

They don't know anything about "bad songs", but they haven't a lot of subscribes or something like that.
You deserve so much more success.
Inferi´s albums are really masterpieces!!!
You're too kind! Thank you.
Goddamn I fuckin love Inferi!
Father's, I am ready.
This is my favourite band now, i dont care, inferi is the best melodeath band ever, you cant change my mind

Unbelievable. Those last two songs are a perfect close
THE PERFECT ALBUM.
This is one of the best albums I have ever listened to. And i do NOT say that lightly.
Every song is a masterpiece on it's own, but that riff on "From Exile to Exaltation" is fucking wow
This is your guys's best since the path of apotheosis
Can't believe that tour got canceled, shit broke my heart. Stoked for the new album all the same though, it's going to be a ripper!
It broke ours as well. We'll get em next time.
@@INFERIOfficial for sure duders, I'll be around when it happens too. I'm ready to rage while you're on stage! 🤘
What tour? I'm seeing them in haltom City Texas in a couple months
@@leroy92TX their tour last year with Black Crown and Arkaik. I'm seeing the same tour you are in a couple months with Archspire. It's a different tour, no worries.

How come you like it this much? :)
Oh man, it`s amazing indeed, but have you heard of Archspire`s Bleed The Future?
Why have i only heard ov this band now, absolute destruction 🔥🔥
This is the most brutal album released this year, hands down.
Can’t wait my pals 😻❤️
😍😍😍😍 miss you bud!
Masterpiece !
its actually absurd how good this album is from start to finish
Glad you dig it! Thank you.
This is some seriously solid metal here. I'm a huge new fan now.
Every single song is fucking top notch, not a single dull moment in this album, you guys never disappoint!
So underrated. One of the best bands Ive ever seen live.
carving thine kingdom and mesmeric horror are masterpieces
The fact that ‘No Gods But Our Flesh’ starts the exact same way that ‘The Path of Apotheosis’ ends
A detail noticed only by the most loyal Inferi fans!
Totally notice this man, and I am about to comment this too..\m/
YESSSSSSSSSS THANK YOU!!!! I asked Santa for a Sheet Happens book of this album
This might be a little premature, but I have little doubt in my mind this will be my AOTY.
Such praise, thank you!!
These dudes deserve way more attention

HOW DOES THIS HAVE ONLY 50K VIEWS!?
You guys haven’t missed!
We'll be in love with this album 🥰
Yall are popping off in metal pages on Facebook. And I agree, Youse have been slept on for too long.
I wasn't expecting this to be this good. Damn.
Best technical mdm album of year 100%.
The whole album is amazing, but a highlight for me is "From exile to exaltation". The riffing and atmosphere on this is just next level
*Whoever produced this release should definitely be given a raise.*
Dave Otero gets paid a lot, please don't give him ideas between albums. hahaha
This is not just metal this is art masters at their craft!
This record is damned crazy.......how the fawk can people shred so fawking fast?!
I'm a new fan as of yesterday! \m/
Sick! 🤘🤘🤘
I can already tell this is gonna bring me great pleasure.
Bro can't wait to see what y'all cooked up the singles were stellar I've been counting the days for this release
We are so excited to dig into this. Thanks for this gift, Malcolm and Inferi!
Never heard of this band but this video just popped up in my feed. Must be ny lucky day. Amazing 👏
Glad you dig it, Rod.
The first time I listened to Inferi was when they released "The Path of Apotheosis." What a fucking masterpiece it was. And this one is just as great. Loving your new music!

That's metal.

The outro of The Path of Apotheosis as the intro to this album? Love it.
Yup! This album takes place right after TPOA
@@stevieboiser2304 ah that's so sick! I need to read into Inferi lore more. Do the other albums take place in this timeline?

This is probably the best album ever made, period!
