SHADOW OF INTENT have returned-and they've brought war with them. The New England metal titans today release "Feeding the Meatgrinder", a merciless new single and it's accompanying music video, that serves as both harbinger and warning shot for their upcoming studio album, Imperium Delirium, set for release June 27 via Blood Blast Distribution.

Featuring a guest vocal from death metal legend Corpsegrinder (CANNIBAL CORPSE), "Feeding the Meatgrinder" is an unrelenting descent into sonic carnage. Lyrically, it paints a brutal anti-imperialist and anti-war narrative, describing the dehumanization and destruction of mass conflict in harrowing detail-its chorus a nihilistic refrain: "Continue to bleed or feed-you're feeding the meatgrinder."

"We couldn't be more excited to kick off album 5 with this brand new track where we get to push our boundaries even further. A massive thank you to the great George Fisher aka Corpsegrinder for lending us his voice."

Lyrically and thematically, Imperium Delirium continues SHADOW OF INTENT's descent into the real-world horrors that define our past and foreshadow our future. From mythic allegory to modern bloodshed, the band's subject matter confronts the sickness of empires, the seduction of violence, and the machinery of death that fuels it all. As always, the sound is enormous-melding symphonic grandeur, blackened melody, razor-sharp technicality, and punishing breakdowns into a style that remains utterly their own.

Since their formation in 2014, SHADOW OF INTENT have garnered a reputation for crafting mind-blowingly technical, prog tinged symphonic deathcore. Widely acknowledged as one of the forerunners of the current deathcore renaissance, the band's debut album Primordial was named as one of Revolver Magazine's '15 Essential Deathcore Albums', with Metal Sucks giving their 2019 album Melancholy a perfect 5/5 review, stating "you can expect SHADOW OF INTENT to send echoes across metal for as long as they feel like making music". To date, they have clocked up 200 million streams, 62 million YouTube Views and have 340,000 monthly listeners on Spotify.
