Shadow of Intent - Imperium Delirium (2025)
Imperium Delirium sees Shadow of Intent forging a masterful fusion of crushing deathcore breakdowns and razor-sharp symphonic death metal precision. The album opens with relentless fury and grandeur, blending technical riffs, bludgeoning drums, and orchestral accents. Tracks like “Feeding The Meatgrinder” (featuring Cannibal Corpse’s George “Corpsegrinder” Fisher) and “They Murdered Sleep” spotlight the band’s ability to seamlessly integrate brutal heaviness with cinematic symphonics. No filler moments: even instrumental piece “Apocalypse Canvas” sustains tension for full immersion. Each breakdown and tempo shift feels purposeful, never gratuitous—balancing nostalgia for their early deathcore roots with evolved songwriting and polished production. A confident, focused album that cements Shadow of Intent’s place among the elite of modern symphonic deathcore.
