On their Anti- debut, "New Bermuda," Deafheaven cites death metal demigods Dissection and Morbid Angel and the blackened death pioneers Behemoth and Cliff Burton-era Metallica as influences on the new album. As "New Bermuda" progresses, Deafheaven travels further outside of their comfort zone, feasting on other niches of underground metal and offsetting the blunt force of their feral rage with more complex and nuanced beauty. A sophisticated and subdued pop element kicks off "Baby Blue" before the band abruptly shifts into an amalgam of NWOBHM's anthemic urgency and thrash metal's racing chugs. There's a brief comedown where the band veers into the musique concrete soundscapes and hushed melodrama of early Godspeed You! Black Emperor before "Come Back" resumes the band's merciless assault of stampeding drums and vitriolic guitar harmonies, only to shift mid-song into the somber territories of 4AD's early catalog. Which is not to say that Deafheaven has softened their approach; "New Bermuda" offers the most punishing music of the band's career in the wake of their greatest success. Now available on vinyl with a gatefold cover. Vinyl version includes download card.
