Kingdoms Disdained by Morbid Angel
Kingdoms Disdained is the ninth studio album by American death metal band Morbid Angel, which was released on December 1, 2017 by Silver Lining Music. It is the first album since 2003's Heretic to feature Steve Tucker and the introduction of Annihilated drummer Scott Fuller. It is also the first to not feature David Vincent, Destructhor and Tim Yeung since 2011's Illud Divinum Insanus, as all three members left the band in 2015. A music video was made for "Garden of Disdain"
On their first album in 14 years with returning vocalist/bassist Steve Tucker, Floridian extremity experts Morbid Angel rediscover death metal after 2011’s industrial-influenced <i>Illud Divinum Insanus</i>. Led by guitarist and founder Trey Azagthoth, the revamped band careens through an intense hellscape of rapid-fire riffs, whiplash-inducing arrangements and swarming blast beats on “D.E.A.D”, “Garden of Disdain” and “From the Hand of Kings,” while tracks like “Paradigms Warped”, “The Pillars Crumbling” and “Declaring New Law” decelerate the relentless pace with grinding, mid-tempo grooves.
