Lord Gryphus 🇺🇸 - Summoning the King of Death (Album 2026). Nespithe Records. Link in comments.
Austin, Texas death metal outfit LORD GRYPHUS have emerged from the underground with their debut full-length, Summoning the King of Death. Built on the foundations of 'early 90s extreme metal, the band delivers a raw, ritual-driven sound that blends crushing aggression with oppressive atmosphere and a deep reverence for death.

Channeling the spirit of genre pioneers like Morbid Angel, Gorefest, Sepultura, Grave, Autopsy, Incantation, and Sinister, LORD GRYPHUS forge a sound rooted in primitive death metal ex*****on, atmosphere, and confrontation.

The band operates as a three-piece anonymous unit, all masked, drawing from deep roots in the extreme metal underground. Their identity and concept revolve around ex*****on, sacrifice, and ritual devotion to a carrion deity known as Lord Gryphus, inspired by Vultur gryphus, the Andean condor, a symbol tied to death, transcendence, and spiritual power.

Lyrically and thematically, LORD GRYPHUS confront colonial violence, cultural erasure, and imposed religion, while honoring ancestral traditions and forgotten histories. The result is a release that is as ideological as it is sonic, built around ritual, resistance, and death as a force of reverence rather than fear.

Summoning the King of Death was recorded at Red Nova Ranch in Bastrop, Texas with Jeff Henson handling tracking, reamping, guitars, and bass. Vocals were recorded and produced by K**e Valderrama at Buziraco’s Lair Studio. The album was mixed and mastered by Andrés Mauricio Gallón at Sound Blast Studios in Armenia, Colombia.

The record includes a cover of “Troops Of Doom,” originally by Sepultura, along with guest vocals from Reese Alavi (Creeping Death) and a guitar solo by Mike De León (Flesh Hoarder / Soulfly), adding further weight to its underground impact.

LORD GRYPHUS recently appeared alongside legendary death metal veterans Internal Suffering on select dates of their 30th anniversary North American tour, bringing their ceremonial style of devastation to stages across the southern United States.

Says the band: “This album is our declaration of allegiance to death metal in its purest form. Influenced by the savage spirit of the early '90s, Summoning the King of Death delivers raw aggression, ritualistic atmosphere, and a reverence for death that transcends time and culture.”
