Czech brutal death metal and slam outfit Anime Torment unleash their brand new single and music video, “Retribution” — a punishing statement that combines crushing riffs, relentless blast beats and a dark, cinematic sci-fi atmosphere.
The track leans into everything the band does best: churning slam grooves, guttural vocals and precision brutality, wrapped in an oppressive futuristic ambience that pushes the song beyond a straight death metal assault into something closer to a soundtrack for a dystopian collapse.
“Hi! We are Anime Torment, a brutal death metal/slam band from the Czech Republic. Retribution is our brand new single and music video, combining crushing riffs, relentless blast beats and dark sci-fi atmosphere,” the band tell Metal Madness Weekly.
For fans of Aborted, Organectomy, Extermination Dismemberment, Cytotoxin and Acranius, “Retribution” fits comfortably alongside the heaviest names in the modern brutal death and slam underground while carving out its own identity through atmosphere and sci-fi imagery.
The single is streaming now, with the accompanying music video out on the band's official channels. Turn it up, and don't stand too close to the pit.
