Fallujah - Xenotaph (Red/Black Swirl Colour Vinyl LP)

Facts Tech-metal outfit Fallujah expand horizons and solidify their position as one of America's most exciting artists on their new album, Xenotaph, through Nuclear Blast. The Bay Area-based quintet's confidence in the lineup that made their previous album, Empyrean (2022), such a resounding success-earning high marks from Metal Injection, New Noise, and Guitar World-has been reconfigured slightly, with guitarist Sam Mooradian (INHALE EXISTENCE, SAM MOORADIAN) and drummer Kevin Alexander (DISEMBODIED TYRANT. BROUGHT BY PAIN) bringing their jaw-dropping musical proficiency to the fold, as vocalist Kyle Schaefer, guitarist Scott Carstairs, and bassist Evan Brewer enter a new chapter with Fallujah.
