Today marks the official unveiling of Denigration, the new full-length from UK technical death metal juggernauts INGESTED, out now on Metal Blade Records! To celebrate the release, the band presents a lyric video for “Oaths Betrayed.”

The band comments, “’Oaths Betrayed‘ takes the language of faith, war, and destiny and turns it against the systems that abuse those ideas. The lyrics are about promises written in blood and enforced with steel; oaths that were supposed to protect but ended up binding people to suffering. It‘s a world where idols are pissed on, scriptures are burned, and yet people still march ’through ruins to claim what‘s mine‘ because truth is the only thing left worth carrying. It‘s the sound of realizing that the divine has abandoned you, and deciding you‘ll carve your own laws into bone.

“This song almost didn‘t make the cut, and now it‘s one of the tracks we reach for first. Musically, it hits that high-tempo, groove-driven, 2010s-era death metal energy, spiked with breakdowns that feel like the floor cracking open. It‘s urgent, almost martial at times, with riffs that march more than they sprint. Lyn‘s lyrical contribution here adds a different edge, more confrontational, more fixated on personal agency in the middle of collapse. ’Oaths Betrayed‘ feels like a rallying cry in the second half of the record.”

For nearly two decades, Manchester‘s INGESTED have stood as one of the UK‘s most uncompromising forces in extreme metal. Champions of a sound that fuses precision brutality with increasingly dynamic songwriting, they‘ve evolved from underground slam pioneers into a globally recognized, forward-driving powerhouse. With Denigration, the band begins a bold new chapter, one defined by reinvention, sharpened purpose and the arrival of new voices at the helm.

At the core of this evolution remain founding members Sean Hynes (guitars, co-vocals) and Lyn Jeffs (drums), the creative backbone whose vision, chemistry, and relentless drive have powered INGESTED since day one. They are joined by guitarist Andrew Virrueta, who also contributes vocals to the album and bassist Thomas O‘Malley completing a lineup that delivers the band‘s most dynamic and commanding work to date.

In addition to, Denigration includes guest appearances by John Gallagher of Dying Fetus on “Watch You Fold,” Damonteal Harris of PeelingFlesh on “Merciless Reflection,” Skyler Conder of Cell on “Dragged Apart,” and Kyle Medina of Bodysnatcher on “Dredge The Dark,” further amplifying the record’s scope and intensity

Produced by Nico Beninato at The Arch Studios in Southport, UK, Denigration captures INGESTED at their sharpest and most forward-thinking. The album‘s visual identity is equally striking, featuring artwork by Giannis Nakos of Remedy Art Design, whose detailed, eerie imagery reflects the record‘s thematic depth and ferocious tone.
