Let’s cut to the chase: Crungus is not here to make friends. They’re here to punch holes in your soul with riffs so heavy they could cave in a cathedral. Hailing from the middle of nowhere, Texas Panhandle, to be exact, this five-piece beast has taken what started as a two-man acoustic experiment in 2021 and turned it into one of the most aggressive, raw, and unapologetic voices in underground metal today.
Their new album “Hollow” drops on August 1, 2025 , and let me tell you, it doesn’t mess around. It’s brutal death metal, yes, but there’s also blackened frost, doom-laden grooves, and enough chaos to make even Mayhem think twice. This isn’t just noise; it’s emotion carved out with chainsaws and screamed through megaphones. The lyrics? Think inner torment, societal rot, and that gnawing fear we all feel when we stare at the ceiling at 3am wondering if anything matters.
Check out the lyric video for “Lost” , which is already giving me chills and maybe a little bit of PTSD:
The tracklist alone is a war zone:
Dead Tree
Hollow
The Fear
Collapsing
Undying Ritual
Shapeshifter
Abomination
Lost
Parasites
Massacre
Yeah, this ain’t a party playlist. It’s a full-blown exorcism.
If you like your metal loud, DIY, and dripping with sweat and fury, Crungus is your new obsession. No polish, no fluff: just five guys who know how to write songs that hit harder than a bad breakup and a hangover combined.
Catch up with them here:
Honestly? I love seeing bands that don’t wait for permission: they build their own hell and call it home. That’s Crungus. And trust me, once you hear “Hollow,” you’ll be screaming along too.
