Josh and I have been hard at work filming our parts for one of the new Sumptus Ignis tracks, entitled Crusader (The Purge). We plan to release this song as a single in the next couple of weeks. Stay tuned and subscribe to our Youtube Channel to see it first!
Miscelaneous music updates
Josh and I are working on another batch of songs for Sumptus Ignis but we haven’t decided yet whether this will be an EP or a full-length.
In Caustic Reverie news, the digital re-release campaign continues. So far, I have uploaded Starter House, Decadent Nemesis, Bones of the Earth, Unearthly Sun, The Descending, Remainders, and Mithridatium.
ProgGnosis review and merch
Marc from ProgGnosis was kind enough to give our EP a review on his site.
Here’s Jessy modeling our merchandise from Threadless. We’ve got shirts, hoodies, bath towels, and even a freaking band logo shower curtain available. The PJ pants are verified comfy and even have pockets!
Seasons of Attrition release!
December’s End Lyric video and our first review
Josh has put together a lyric video for our Sumptus Ignis track “December’s End”, which will be on our first EP Seasons of Attrition.
Speaking of which, Dave from Metal-Temple.com gave us our first review.

EP details
Happy February from camp Sumptus Ignis. We’ve locked down the final mixes and can now announce that our first release is entitled Seasons of Attrition, for release in early March. We’re calling it an EP since it has four songs, even though it’s technically longer than Reign In Blood.
Voices of the Dead (8:22)
As Is (5:17)
Beyond the Blighted Shore (7:43)
December’s End (7:52)
Special thanks to Richard at Demiurgic Designs for the sick album art and spiffy new logo redesign. Watch this spot for a cover reveal in the next two weeks.
Sumptus Ignis EP preview
Here are clips from the first four Sumptus Ignis songs. I’m still working on the final mixes and mastering, but this should give you a pretty good idea of what this project’s all about.
Voices of the Dead
Whispers from the long-departed
Songs of stillness carved in silence
Sorrowed secrets, words of anger
Locked in time like wasps in amber
Clutching hands – Fever shakes
The concrete bed so cold
Rags over bone
Staring bloodshot
Insomniac dreams intrude
Staining the landscape
Obscenity unseen
Desperation lingering
A broken thing discarded
Ragged nails – Plow the scars
The hunger digs below
Deep in the soul
Boiling empty
Chew the dregs
Digest the filth of decisions past
Every waking moment – Voices of the dead
Phantom vicious babble – Drains his sanity
Constant mental battle – Hear them screaming
Nightmares never buried – The traumas trail his life
Eyes closed – Still the visions remain
The past tears through the comforting lies
Cracked skull – the walls are crumbling down
Burdened by atrocity
Blistered grin – A vulture’s laugh
like rusted links of chain
Dropped to the earth
Broken shackles – the guilt undone
Forgiveness comes with a gift of silence
