The Cutting Edge Of Metal With JAMIE SAINT MERAT From ULCERATE

The Cutting Edge Of Metal With JAMIE SAINT MERAT From ULCERATE

Interview by Kris Peters
After triumphantly casting off the shackles of claustrophobic dissonance on 2020's lauded Stare Into Death and Be Still, New Zealand unorthodox death metal legends ULCERATE up the ante even further with mind-bending 7th album Cutting the Throat of God.
An acknowledgement that the band's most powerful and affecting material leans to the melodic side, this refined and hook-laden new record is a self-sufficient universe unto itself, a conflagration of inventively visceral death/black metal where dizzying experimentation meets head-nodding abandon - obscenely twisted and addictive, heart-stopping in its depth of feeling.
To complete the touring cycle for Cutting…, ULCERATE will undertake seven Australasian headlining dates starting in Christchurch this Saturday, with Australian support from The Amenta - who will be performing their debut album Occasus in full - plus New Zealand black/death metal outfit Vicissitude for the home shows.
HEAVY sat down with Ulcerate drummer Jamie Saint Merat to find out more.

April 18th – Christchurch, Loons +
