Comments vocalist Derek Rydquist, “’Fleshbound Reliquary‘ depicts a world and existence where resources have been so ravaged that we are forced to look towards ourselves as the means of production for what comes next.”

Adds guitarist Justin McKiney, “Musically, the track features a series of tightly interlocked rhythmic motifs executed with laser precision, all within a traditional song structure. The piece is primarily in 3, culminating in a grand, climactic resolution of the main motif that transitions into a powerful 4 feel for an epic close.”

THE ZENITH PASSAGE is currently wrapping up a successful North American tour which began October 30th supporting labelmates Entheos. “We‘re honored to be part of Entheos‘ first headlining tour,” offers Rydquist, “Our bands go back over twenty years in some form or another – Derek has been playing shows with Entheos drummer Navene [Koperweis] since high school! – and it’s awesome to continue to be part of each other‘s success. We‘re playing the new song on this run, our brothers in Fallujah are bringing the shred, and our new friends in Tracheotemy are bringing the heavy, so be sure to show up early and get a taste of everything metal can give you in 2025.” See all remaining dates below.
