On Friday, February 3rd, Deathcore quintet Osiah released their new EP 'Chronos' (via Unique Leader Records).

Hailing from the extreme music melting pot that is the northeast of England, Osiah transcends the deathcore label with what could possibly be the most torturous barrage of filth the UK has produced in recent years. Crushingly intense breakdowns and deathly chops tread a familiar path, but jarringly detuned guitars, unpredictable tempo changes and vocals that range from wide-ranging pitched screams to commanding guttural bowel openers add an extra evil to the sound that cannot be put into words.

Periphery are masters to their craft and this album is shaping up to be not different, keeping up with the core sound to the genre their new single Wildfire.
