Dead Animal Assembly Plant invite you to the slaughterhouse to feast on their latest offering, “Cinders”, featuring James Rietz Of Crossbreed. The industrial-driven, hard-hitting rhythmic single “Cinders” is released via Armalyte Industries.
The band comments:
“‘Cinders’ – for us – represents a new era of the band. A chance to burn off the old flesh and start fresh. We haven’t released any new music in a while so it was cathartic to work on this song, and being able to work with James Rietz from Crossbreed was a big honor. After meeting on the Combichrist tour – we all instantly connected – and having been long time fans of Crossbreed – it was great to be able to collaborate on ‘Cinders’. The song really encapsulates the building frustration and explosive anger we have all been feeling until it just kinda breaks. This almost cynical acceptance of our inevitable and accelerating self-destruction. As people. As a species. As a society. We definitely had it coming.”
Formed in 2007, the Portland OR, USA, act began as a solo project by Zach Wager before evolving into a full band in 2011. Drawing inspiration from the likes of Slipknot, Pig, Nine Inch Nails, and Rob Zombie, Dead Animal Assembly Plant allow themselves to be experimental with their creative direction. The band use these influences along with a wide array of instruments and styles to create a distinctive sound, “I think the unique elements of our sound really stem from not trying to write any conventionally genre specific song. So whether it’s using theremins, sampling high tension wires, or anything we feel can add some personality to the song – nothing is off limits.”
Over the course of their career to date, Dead Animal Assembly Plant ‘s notable appearances include Knotfest (2015), Wasteland Weekend (2018-2022, 2024), as support for Combichrist on the Only Death is Immortal North American Tour (2024), along with headlining Hellfire Tour (2018, West Coast/Southwest Run) and Bring Out The Dead North American Tour (2019). Dead Animal Assembly Plant have also created/performed multiple soundscapes for Belgian surrealist photographers, Mothmeister, at their art exhibits.
