CHESTCRUSH is an international extreme metal band hailing from Scotland. Formed in Edinburgh in 2020, the group quickly made waves in the underground scene with the release of their debut EP, Demo.
In 2021, they unveiled their debut album, Vthelygmia, which garnered critical acclaim within the UK underground metal circles. 2022 marked a shift in their line-up and the release of the EP Apechtheia, featuring the standout track The Despiser, which was handpicked by Matt Heafy of Trivium for inclusion in the soundtrack of the upcoming film DEATHGASM II: Goremageddon, set to premiere in 2025.
Now, CHESTCRUSH is poised to release their highly anticipated sophomore album titled ΨΥΧΟΒΓΑΛΤΗΣ, a Greek term that literally translates to ‘Soul Extractor,’ and is metaphorically used to describe a person or experience that torments you so deeply it feels as though it pulls the very essence of your soul out of your mouth.
