Relentless powerhouse Graceless’ new album ’Icons of Ruin’ is the band’s most groundbreaking release to date. Massively produced, it boats crushing, unrelenting, large-scale, bombastic sonic destruction! Listen to “Sanctified Slaughter”, now available on all major digital platforms.

”Sanctified Slaughter” is a song about loosing faith after seeing what horrors resulted in following a religion .The icons that used to provide guidance and represented morality are now icons of ruin.

“’Icons of Ruins’ is exactly what Graceless should sound like. This is us”, says drummer Marc Verhaar. The songs are destined to be more than just tracks—they are anthems, rallying cries for those who are also witnessing the world around them crumble and burn. “ Graceless has become much more than a regular death metal band”, says Jasper. “We couldn’t be more proud of this album”, concludes frontman & founder David Kreft.
