Biography

A punitive Denver trio whose bleak, intense music combines multiple subgenres of extreme metal, Of Feather and Bone emerged in 2014 with a pair of punishing EPs that combined crust punk, grindcore, and cryptic death metal. They hewed closer to the latter style on their 2018 Profound Lore debut, the acclaimed Bestial Hymns of Perversion. Of Feather and Bone formed in 2012 around the talents of Alvino (bass & vocals), Dave (guitar), and Preston (drums), all of whom knew one another through their membership of various acts in the local scene. Informed equally by hardcore, crust punk, death metal, and grindcore, they started writing together, finding an easy collaborative style and rehearsing incessantly in order to have the songs as tight as possible before recording. The band's first releases came in 2014 with the EPs Adorned in Decay and False Healer, and a split with Reproacher. Their debut album, Embrace the Wretched Flesh, which saw them powering through ten songs in 23 minutes, was issued by Good Fight Music in 2015 and gained them significant attention in the specialist press. But the material on it had been written a year earlier, and by the time of its release, they were already moving in a different direction. After touring the record, the group returned to writing in earnest in their new style. In 2018, Of Feather and Bone signed to Profound Lore before the release of their sophomore album, Bestial Hymns of Perversion. Heavier than their debut, it had a much sludgier, death metal-influenced sound. They continued to crystallize their punishing death metal sound on 2020's Sulfuric Disintegration. ~ John D.
