The new single from Costa Rican death metal horde Mortual, “Skeletal Vortex”, is now streaming. This is the second offering from the band’s debut album Altar Of Brutality, out July 4, 2025 on LP, CD and MC via Nuclear Winter Records.
A frenzied descent into death metal’s most malevolent depths, “Skeletal Vortex” expands on the savage groundwork laid by the album’s first single, delivering a whirlwind of blistering riffs, demonic vocals and relentless percussion. Reaffirming their unholy devotion to the old ways, Mortual offer no compromise, only absolute spiritual violence and riff-driven annihilation.
Spawned in the black rain and pestilent winds of San José, Altar Of Brutality is a declaration of total spiritual negation: eight impure hymns steeped in decay, fanatic violence and the iconoclastic hunger to desecrate all that is sacred. Carrying forward the cursed legacy of their previous EP Evil Incarnation, Mortual now reach deeper into the void, channeling a darker, more oppressive sound, dripping with heretical intent and sharpened through years of relentless underground devotion.
This is not a reinvention, but a declaration, a brutal affirmation of death metal’s primal force. With Altar Of Brutality, Mortual summon a vision of spiritual ruin and corporeal decay, wrapped in chains of riffs, blasts and unwavering intensity.
Mixed and mastered by Dan Lowndes at Resonance Sound Studio.
