PREMIERE: Blood Offer – Consumed By Brutality
Lombardy, Italy's newest and most primitive old school death metal band, Blood Offer, announce the release of their debut full-length album All That Dies... Is Forsaken, arriving Friday 5 September on digital, CD and cassette formats via Iron Fortress Records.
Ahead of the album's release, the band are unveiling their next single, “Consumed by Brutality.” Frontman and guitarist Lorenzo Barresi “Cerberio” described the song’s dark vision:
“The inspiration for ‘Consumed by Brutality’ came from the will to make a chaotic and malevolent representation of a mournful, slow, and desired death, savored and enjoyed until the last breath.”

Forged in 2022 by Lorenzo Barresi 'Cerberio' (voice/guitar), the band solidified its lineup with Matteo Negroni 'Noise' (bass), Elia Varischi 'Vario' (guitar) and Giulio Conti 'Cortez' (drums). Blood Offer quickly made their mark with the underground EP Into Evil Rites, culminating in a ferocious performance at A Journey in Darkness Fest II.
On the themes explored in ‘Consumed by Brutality’, Cerberio explained: “The main theme of the song is the sensation of being totally consumed by the desire to feel what it’s like to die in a slow and painful way. The verses explore the mental and physical sensation of dying after voluntarily drinking poison, the sensation of the venom spreading through your body: ‘fluid of death slowly streams’ and the capture of the moment in a decadent and macabre way.”
Cerberio also noted the song’s significance within the album: “The song fits perfectly with the rest of the album, but when it comes to structure and riffs, I think it’s the most complete of all the tracks.”
On July 30th, the band released ‘Self Embalmed’, the first single from ‘All That Dies…Is Forsaken’, which can be streamed here.
The new album, recorded in the infamous Macabro Bunker Recording Studio and engineered by Maso Alastor Desekrator, delivers 38 minutes of relentless cavernous death metal for fans of Incantation, Entombed, Morbid Angel and Immolation.
‘All That Dies…Is Forsaken’ is available for pre-order from Iron Fortress Records here.
