Out now - the new full-length from Nor Cal's Apothesary. Praised by No Clean Singing for their “impressive, hard-charging melodic death metal with a shitload of technical flair and enough pummeling brutality to leave bruises”.

This EP showcases a continued maturity as the band blend new and old-school death metal influences to concoct something brutal, melodic and adventurous all in one. On Sensory Overload, APOTHESARY epitomize their generation – youth plagued by depression, anxiety, and drug use writing songs that paint the beauty of struggle at its most primal with every riff, heavy… every melody, heartfelt… and every word, honest.
