From Portland, Oregon, Aseitas belongs to an echelon of extreme metal bands prevailing on two fronts simultaneously: challenging the mind while punching the gut. Equally progressive and savage, Aseitas marries the far-reaching and heady with the grounded and visceral.
Sophomore album False Peace is a courageous 72-minute journey, dense with musical ideas. Aseitas deals in a wildly adventurous brand of death metal that veers freely into noise and post-rock realms. Over the course of 11 tracks – ranging from 2 minutes to a sprawling 16 minutes in length – Aseitas unfurls dizzying shred, soaring melody, pensive interludes, and hideous slime-grooves. While the band members list King Crimson, Gojira, and Jute Gyte as three big influences, recent reviews have compared the Aseitas sound to Pyrrhon and Car Bomb.
Translation Loss Records will release the album on vinyl on September 25th.

"[Aseitas] welds golden-era Relapse abstract metalcore to sweaty, early ‘90s brutal death metal... The band is able to keep a sense of urgency even when exercising its most ambitious inclinations."
–Stereogum
"A head-spinning album that takes a death metal chassis and starts welding things onto it until it resembles an apocalyptic nightmare vehicle straight out of Mad Max: Fury Road..."
–Bandcamp Daily
"Aseitas have the technical chops to rival Gorguts or the slithery Finns in Demilich. Throughout the album, tech-death is often reframed through Botchian angularity and metallic hardcore hostility."
–Decibel
"Genre-bending, face-melting... If you're a fan of mathy equations that were never meant to be solved, you're in for a treat!"
–Metal Injection
"False Peace is rife with daring ideas and an overall adventurous approach to death metal... A solid contender for album of the year."
–Everything Is Noise
"Aseitas not only possesses ambition in spades, but execute their vision perfectly on their sophomore album False Peace... A mid-paced Death Metal groove, yet screwed and chopped into challenging new configurations."
–No Clean Singing
"False Peace is a sophomore triumph that surpasses the lofty expectations the band established on their debut... An extended sonic palette pulling in shades of industrial and post-metal to compliment a more robust approach to avant-garde death metal... False Peace is a collection of nonstop bangers you need in your life immediately."
–Heavy Blog Is Heavy
"Portland-area dissonant death metal group Aseitas present a powerfully captivating vision of a world that’s been strewn into chaotic disarray... A mixture of ominously off-kilter rhythms that intertwine a core monstrous propulsion with fiery blasts that feel like flames leaping out of cracks in the earth."

–Captured Howls
"Starting the hype train for the new album from Portland progressive, technical metal band Aseitas... Think a mixture of Pyrrhon, Cult Leader, Warforged, etc. The album is sick, so don't sleep on it."
–Metal Trenches
"Coming off like the spawn of jagged death metal and airy prog rock, False Peace has Aseitas raising the abrasiveness for their sophomore album."
–Heavy Music HQ
"This is an early glimpse at the future of death metal."
–Angry Metal Guy
