Vomitory - Rapture in Rupture (Official)

When Erik and I started writing for the new album, this riff fit right in and we began writing around it. It all came together pretty quickly. Erik had this killer Vader-esque riff for the verse and then we were almost done. It's the second song we wrote for the album. It's one of the more intense and straight in your face songs, even lyrically, which makes it a perfect album opener. It also makes a great presentation of our new lead guitarist Christian Fredriksson with not one, but two spellbinding solos.” - Tobias Gustafsson

The band didn't miss a beat in getting back to writing. According to drummer Tobias Gustafsson, while the unmistakable Vomitory sound remains, the new album cranks up the intensity. "In Death Throes picks up where All Heads Are Gonna Roll left off, but we've turned the intensity up a notch. Christian quickly found his place and even contributed music to four killer tracks. These additions bring a bit of diversity to our sound without straying too far from the formula."

The songwriting process began in the summer of 2024 with Tobias and bassist Erik Rundqvist riffing away over beers. The first fruit of their labor was "Two and a Half Men," followed by the album opener, "Rapture in Rupture." From there, the band worked together closely, with each member contributing to the arrangements and fine-tuning the tracks in the rehearsal space before finalizing them. Lyrically, Erik once again brought his trademark gore, but with some fresh, more contemporary twists on In Death Throes.

Recording took place across multiple studios in late 2025. Drums and vocals were recorded at Leon Music Studios in Karlstad, Sweden, with producer Rikard Löfgren (who had previously worked on Terrorize Brutalize Sodomize, Carnage Euphoria and Opus Mortis VIII) handling the engineering. Guitars and bass were tracked at Goff Studios in Karlstad, with Christian Fredriksson taking the reins as the engineer. For mixing and mastering, the band once again turned to Lawrence Mackrory (Paradise Lost, Bloodbath, Lik) at Rorysound Studios in Uppsala, Sweden, who delivered a crushing, heavy sound that still manages to breathe.

As with "All Heads Are Gonna Roll," the album artwork was handled by Giannis Nakos of Remedy Art Design, while Seiya Ogino of Ogino Design handled the layout. The result is an album that's as ferocious as it is visually stunning.

LYRICS: With vengeance I will cut you down, I show no mercy I'm only here to kill, to erase you My fist will crush your face, you must die A painful awakening, as you beg for mercy

Suffering, no escape from my hate Ruthlessly, I watch you bleed Violently, I sever all your limbs Rapture in rupture

Suffering, no escape from my hate Ruthlessly, I watch you bleed Violently, I sever all your limbs Rapture in rupture

Gargling blood, no compassion left Your screams, your fear, fill me with pleasure I stab, I maim, I cut, peeling off your skin As you beg for mercy, I carve one last time

Suffering, no escape from my hate Ruthlessly, I watch you bleed Violently, I sever all your limbs Rapture in rupture
