  • Pacific Northwest Death Metal Force Paralicyst Unleashes Crushing New Single “Conjure The Flames” – @thebeast

    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
    Pacific Northwest Death Metal Force Paralicyst Unleashes Crushing New Single “Conjure The Flames”
    Release Date: January 27, 2026
    Streaming: https://ditto.fm/conjure-the-flames
    The Pacific Northwest underground continues to prove why it’s one of the most fertile breeding grounds for extreme metal as Paralicyst unleashes their blistering new single “ Conjure The Flames.” Delivering a relentless dose of old school brutality and modern ferocity, the track is now available on all major streaming platforms.
    Forged in the chaos of 2019, Paralicyst emerged from the PNW metal scene with a mission to channel the raw power and uncompromising spirit of classic death metal. Drawing inspiration from titans like Obituary, Malevolent Creation, and Cannibal Corpse, the band blends punishing riffs, crushing rhythms, and savage vocal assaults into a sound that feels both nostalgic and devastatingly fresh.
    The band’s early formation included guitarist Ray Eversole ( Cruciation, Tormentium), bassist Nik Harris ( Digitalviolence, Monday With A Bullet, In The Name of God), and drummer Greg Kholer ( Gods in Graves, Cruciation, Father Figure, CIA Hippie Mind Control). In 2022 the lineup solidified with Lou of Malevolent Supremacy and Lude joining on vocals, further sharpening the band’s sonic assault.
    In 2024, Mikey Murderz ( Sakrificer, Innocent Blood) stepped in to take command of vocal duties, bringing a vicious new edge to the band’s sound while also handling the recording, mixing, and mastering duties for their latest material.
    “ Conjure The Flames” represents the first taste of Paralicyst’s current era and serves as a preview of the band’s upcoming debut EP, currently in production and expected later this year. With Murderz overseeing the entire production process, the track captures a raw, unfiltered intensity that pays tribute to death metal’s golden age while pushing the band’s sound forward.
    Now operating in their strongest lineup yet, Paralicyst is poised to carve their mark into the underground with an unrelenting barrage of riffs, blast beats, and infernal energy.
    Fans of Obituary, Malevolent Creation, and Cannibal Corpse should prepare themselves. The flames have been conjured.
