The EP title ‘80 Years’ refers to the eighty years that have passed since the great defeat of fascism — and to the time it has taken for this destructive ideology to return to the political stage and once again poison people’s minds and hearts in a chaotic world. Compared to previous releases, most recently the 2023 EP 'Green Terrorism', blast beats and grindcore have been completely cut away, with the focus instead turned fully toward D-beat, dissonance, and the band’s epic guitar melodies.
In the DIY spirit of ANTI RITUAL, the EP was produced by the band itself, recorded and mixed by bassist K.B. Larsen, while it is mastered by Brad Boatright/Audiosiege, and features artwork by visual artist Neel Krogholt Bjørst.
‘80 Years’ Track List:
1. 80 Years
2. Deportation ASMR for Gil Scott-Heron
3. Emperor of the New Truth
