Defeated Sanity Release Pounding New Drum Playthrough for “Heredity Violated”

After crushing crowds with Sanguisugabogg, Despised Icon and Corpse Pile, next month, Defeated Sanity are hitting the road on their first U.S. headlining tour in support of their latest Billboard-demolishing album Chronicles of Lunacy. During this run across both U.S. coasts, the innovators of brutal death metal will perform Chronicles of Lunacy in its entirety, along with other fan favorites from their discography. Joining them on all 27 dates are Inferi and Organectomy.

As they gear up for the start of their U.S. tour next month, today, Defeated Sanity are releasing a new drum playthrough. While the song brings Chronicles of Lunacy to a horrifying end, “Heredity Violated” further cements their place on the throne as the most technically advanced band in brutal death metal.

“This song was based on a Latin-type rhythm and fused with a brutal riff”, Defeated Sanity drummer Lille Gruber says. “It also has a cool dotted note verses even cymbal thing going on”.
