Gatecreeper "Sonoran Depravation"
Arizona newcomers Gatecreeper deliver nine monstrous songs of low-end, old-school death metal on their savage debut album, "Sonoran Depravation." Having devastated the underground since their formation less than three years ago, Gatecreeper now unleashes its first full-length, produced by Ryan Bram at Homewrecker Studios and mixed by Kurt Ballou (Converge, Nails, Black Breath) at GodCity Studios. "Sonoran Depravation" tears and chugs through 30+ minutes of crusty, doom-soaked death metal at its most infectious and uncompromising with a massive sound that calls to mind the classic, Swedish buzz-saw attack of Dismember and Grave mixed with the impeccable groove of Obituary and Bolt Thrower. Vinyl version includes digital download.
