Forged in 2006, original members Lyn Jeffs and Sean Hynes have been the driving force behind every note, every decision, and the overall vision of INGESTED. Jeffs and Hynes elaborate on the band’s new cast, “To ensure the band reaches even greater heights, we’ve introduced a new team of incredible musicians who share our passion and commitment to making INGESTED the most dynamic and powerful force it can be. Introducing the new lineup of INGESTED:

“Josh Davies – vocals: Josh, known for his work with Monasteries and Malice, has been part of the INGESTED family for the past three years, handling merch on our tours, and working closely with us. He’s a truly ferocious young vocalist whose talent and dedication to his craft will propel the band into exciting new territories. Josh’s tireless work ethic, authentic charisma, and dynamic performances make him the perfect frontman for this new era of INGESTED.

“Andrew Virrueta – guitar, backing vocals: Having crushed it live with us for the past eighteen months, Andrew, also of The Faceless and Interloper, has proven to be the missing ingredient in our sound. His technical brilliance, creative input, and infectious energy have brought a new level of depth and versatility to the band. We can’t wait for you to hear what he’s bringing to the table.

“Thomas O’Malley – bass: Thomas has also been filling in for us on tours over the past eighteen months, and his exceptional musicianship has been a revelation. A powerful and precise player, he has elevated the rhythm section to new heights, making him a vital part of the INGESTED sound going forward.

“With this new lineup, we are stronger, more focused, and more determined than ever to push INGESTED to the next level. This is INGESTED 2.0 — a team united by a shared vision to create the most punishing, uncompromising music of our career.

“To mark this monumental moment, we’re also unleashing our new single, ‘Altar Of Flesh.’ This track is a welcome nod to our roots: violent, dynamic, primal, and unapologetically human. It captures the raw, organic energy that defined our early days while showcasing how far we’ve come. Every riff, every guttural, and every beat is a visceral reminder of what INGESTED is all about. Prepare yourselves. New lineup. New music. And this is just the beginning.”

INGESTED will return to North American stages this week with Aborted. The month-long Terrifying North America tour begins February 13th in Roseville, California and runs through March 15th in Phoenix, Arizona. Additional support will be provided by Peeling Flesh and Stabbing. In May, the band will support Born Of Osiris on a month-long European run from May 8th in Brno, Czech Republic through June 9th in Aarau, Switzerland. Additional support will be provided by The Voynich Code and labelmates, Entheos.

INGESTED released their The Tide of Death And Fractured Dreams full-length last Spring via Metal Blade Records. Lauded Rock Hard Germany of the release, “The Tide Of Death And Fractured Dreams exhibits a considerable degree of musicality, which is expressed in sophisticated arrangements, sophisticated riffs, and strong clean vocals sprinkled in here and there…” Blabbermouth concurred, “Simultaneously riotous and controlled, this is modern death metal at its smartest.” Added MetalSucks, “INGESTED proves over and over again that they can still surprise us. When they started out in 2006, they surprised everyone with their ability to hang with more established US deathcore bands and even outdo them. Now they prove that they can take that sound and be more than heavy, loud, and shocking as they dig deep and get artistic.”
