Boston heavy metallic hardcore contenders VAULTED released their sophomore album Left In Despair last November. Riff heavy and machinegun-like drumming accompanied with howling coarse vocals, the album is a chaotic and frenzied ride riddled with distain and disparity. Recorded by the gentle giant Shane Frisby (Revocation, Bury Your Dead, Deez Nuts) at his Brick HitHouse Studio and mastered by Alan Douches at West Westside Studios (The Dillinger Escape Plan, Converge, Cannibal Corpse) with album artwork by Yodth Gnosis.

With COVID-19 wreaking havoc, Left In Despair the album release show was postponed, but on April 23rd, 2022 four bands would unite at O’Brien’s Pub in Allston, MA. Ancient Death would open things up with Matriphagy and the mighty Black Palm in support.
