about

Skingraft was a band from Rochester, New York who made jarring, technical, rhythmically irregular death metal. Three teenagers who spent the frigid upstate winters mastering arcane scales and double-bass patterns, their elaborate, dynamic songs pair howls and blast beats with brooding, minor-key melodies and deviant rhythms. Picture the bludgeon of Entombed's 'Left Hand Path,' the shattered glass frequencies of Godflesh's 'Streetcleaner,' and the destabilization of 'Remain Sedate' by Rorschach. Skingraft recorded these two songs at Rochester's famed Dajhelon Studios during their junior year of high school.

We wanted the covers to feel sickly, cursed. We wanted them to speak to obliteration. So 40+ secondhand bibles were shredded and pulped, and new paper handmade from this pulp. For every seven copies of this record made, one bible has been removed from earth. Silkscreened covers, colored vinyl, two-sided B&W insert. Edition of 300.

Released on the 30th anniversary of this recording session, this 7" is the first time these songs have been available beyond hermetic tape trading circles.

Guitarist Mat Colbert went on to play in Blurring, Kalibas, and Humiliating Moan. Drummer Andy Meyering is a member of Further Damage.

This is anti-fascist, anti-racist death metal.

Extremely inventive and multifaceted sci-fi prog death, just like iridescent ethereal world on the cover art. Best band's achievement up to date. And easily in 2023 AOTY list Dmitry Nevozhay
