Lausanne-based technical death metallers ADELON have released an official video for the song “Fleshless Vertebrae”, taken from the band’s debut EP “Resurgence” out on June 21st on the main digital streaming platforms.

“Fleshless Vertebrae” is a slightly dark song, capable of transporting us through different moods, thanks to the alternation of blast beats, groove-filled riffs, and strong epic hues. Watch the video here – directed by Alexandra Hernandez!

The band stated about this song:

"The lyrics in this song are about climate change and more specifically, what would happen if a huge catastrophe happened and would force us to change the very foundation of our anatomy in order to survive. The line “Every season changes its motion, natural wisdom” means that the Earth will regulate itself regardless of what we want/think if needed. We might not get acclimated to those changes though. The phrase “Ancient beings whisper their secrets, scattered to the wind, legends of the older one become real” is our way of showing the hypothetical danger of old viruses or sickness stuck in the permafrost that would be released in the air if the ice kept melting.

For this EP, we worked with Alex Sedin who co-produced, mixed and mastered the final product. Alex helped shape different layers in these songs, like adding synths here and there, which is something we did not do at this extent before. In the end, those synth elements became a big part of the EP, giving a wider soundscape depending on the part. For this song, we also added some orchestra and choir at the end, in order to give an epic finale to the song. It’s by far one of our most diverse sounding tracks to date."

The band’s debut EP “Resurgence” will feature four tracks showcasing a death metal sound characterized by pinpoint aggression and surgical finesse. The EP was co-produced, mixed, and mastered by Alex Sedin at Ghostalgy Prods, ensuring a high-quality production that captures the band's raw energy and musical intricacies.

Founded in Lausanne in 2022, ADELON is strongly influenced by the music of Gojira and Decapitated, The band presents a universe between brutality and groove, all wrapped up in elegant melodies. In 2023, the band released two singles and shared dates with the likes of Stortregn, Anachronism, and The Scalar Processand recorded the first EP, “Resurgence”.
