The debut album from Nottingham UK's chaotic metallers, Outergods, is pure intense grind with a hint of experimentation black metal and disgustingly ferocious and absolutely relentless. A Kingdom Built Upon The Wreckage Of Heaven fuses together elements of death metal, black metal and grindcore - blending Outergods' abrasive early influences such as Morbid Angel and Strapping Young Lad with the intensity of more modern, expansive but intense bands like Full of Hell. Lyrically the album uses dark and sinister metaphors to explore turbulence they were experiencing throughout the album's creation. Specifically Nathe found himself in a situation where his family were staring down an immeasurable bereavement - the feelings of hopelessness, grief, and torment were poured into his writing. Finding comfort in nostalgia and seeking connections to the past, a rich seam of inspiration was found in the music that was key to his own musical development. A Kingdom Built Upon The Wreckage of Heaven was self produced, and stays true to their DIY ethic and underground attitude. The album was mastered by friend Kristofer Strandberg, and the album's cover art was crafted by Nathe's brother, Tim Sinfield.
