Rise of Kronos are building toward something heavy. The German death metal outfit have released “Conception Of Humanity,” their second single from the upcoming album ‘Slaves Of Time,’ and it picks up exactly where the crushing title track left off. Relentless riffs, brutal intensity, a suffocating atmosphere, and lyrics that dig into humanity’s destructive nature and the loss of control over its own creation. This is uncompromising death metal with genuine thematic weight.
The single pushes deeper into the sonic identity the band established with “Slaves Of Time,” reinforcing the album’s core preoccupations with time, decay, and existential oppression. Rise of Kronos aren’t just writing heavy music, they’re building a cohesive, dense world around it, and “Conception Of Humanity” makes that case convincingly.
‘Slaves Of Time’ combines modern death metal aggression with massive grooves and an ominous atmosphere that holds across the full twelve-track running time. Pre-orders are live now via the official Rise of Kronos merch store at riseofkronos.bandcamp.com, with exclusive bundles and limited editions available.
