Formed in early 2019, Red Deer, Alberta’s Art Of Attrition is a band that redevelops “the typical” deathcore sound by delivering aggression with melody, atmosphere with intricacy, and brutality with technicality. Combining ferocious work ethic with refined musicality, their songs challenge the notion that deathcore cannot evolve or be unique.
In July 2024, Art Of Attrition unleashed their EP …And It Will All End Forever, to follow their 2023 debut album, “Void Eternal”. As a whole, their latest EP brought listeners disgusting breakdowns, matched by speed and intense guitar work that channeled emotions such as anger and anxiety. Hauntingly memorable solos gave way to epic choruses that share relatable moments. A whirlwind of deathcore it’s matched with classic black metal, and capitalized with bits of groove and creative drum parts.
On February, 14, 2025, Art Of Attrition will unshackle their first single of 2025, entitled “Subserviate & Decay”. The new song is an experimentation of some particular ideas that the band has over the years. With such diverse musical tastes, Art Of Attrition is bringing some evolutionary ideas into their material for a new world order to “throw down.”
Until then, enjoy the videos for “Vitriol” and “Emaciate”, both released in 2024:
