The Denver-based genre fusing metal quartet Cronos Compulsion is preparing to unveil their obliterating chaos in their forthcoming album »Lawgiver«. Known for their crushing riffs, frenzied rhythms, and a genre-defying blend of death-doom, chaotic metal, and noise-laced breakdowns, Cronos Compulsion is ready with a new line-up to enter their next chapter. The first single and title track »Lawgiver« is available now.
»Lawgiver«, Cronos Compulsion’s debut album, has been several years in the making and features a revised track from 2021’s »Cursed And Decaying« EP, »Neolithic Meditations«, and eight other tracks of all-new material. “We’ve been playing these songs live for quite some time now so we’ve managed to distill this down into what we think is a solid first full-length,” says vocalist and guitarist Wil Wilson.
The album, set for release on July 11th on digital, CD and LP via Avantgarde Music death metal division Unorthodox Emanations, is a scathing critique of late-stage capitalism as well as humanity’s basest instincts.

About Cronos Compulsion:
Initially formed in 2021 with Wil Wilson on guitar and vocals, Addison Herron-Wheeler on bass, and Jon Linsky on drums, Cronos Compulsion have been creating their signature brand of death-doom, noise, chaotic metal, and beyond since right after the pandemic. Their debut EP, »Cursed And Decaying«, released in 2021, and was followed by their »Malicious Regression« EP in 2023. 2024 saw Jon exit the band on mutual terms with Raye Mokarry stepping in to fill the role, and Zach Johnson took over drum duties that same year. Their debut full-length, »Lawgiver«, will be out this June via Avantgarde Music.
