Long before “blackened hardcore” became a recognized genre, the band was already forging that collision—fusing the aggression of hardcore with the cold extremity of black metal and the technical precision of death metal.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eTheir feral intensity quickly made an impact in the underground. A notorious performance at Hellfest in 1999 cemented their reputation, leaving behind a set that attendees still speak of.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eTheir 1998 debut full-length, We Bleed From Many Wounds (Eulogy), delivered a bleak and relentless hybrid of hardcore and black metal, earning comparisons to bands such as Integrity, Cryptopsy, and Entombed. Years later, the album was remastered and reissued on limited-edition blood-splatter vinyl through Hypaethral Records, reaffirming its cult status among devotees of extreme music.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe band’s follow-up, The Sheer Force of Inertia, pushed even further into uncharted territory, incorporating electronic textures that hinted at the band’s restless creative instincts. Though their output was brief, Spread The Disease became revered among purists as early trailblazers of a sound that would only gain wider recognition years later.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eRenewed Darkness\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eNow, decades after their primal beginnings, Spread The Disease returns.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eRe-emerging at a point in life where the obligations that once eclipsed creativity have begun to fade, the band has reignited the same uncompromising spirit that defined their earliest recordings. The newly forged lineup, featuring Shane (Bird Of Ill Omen) on vocals, channels that legacy into something darker and more fully realized.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eTheir new album, The Darkness. The Dread. The Suffering., is the product of two years of grim inspiration: a blistering collection of songs that captures the band’s original ferocity while pushing deeper into blackened experimentation.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eBlending the hallmarks of their past—speed, intensity, and viciousness—with a renewed creative drive, this incarnation of Spread The Disease honors its underground roots while forging forward with sharpened purpose.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eDecades later, the darkness remains.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTRACK LIST:\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e1.
