Immolation has been one of the darkest and most distinctive forces in American death metal for decades. Since their formation in the late ’80s, they have built a reputation as a band that refuses to follow trends, instead carving their own path filled with dissonant guitars, unorthodox structures, and a heavy, almost ritualistic atmosphere. Their music has never relied on cheap brutality — instead, it creates a sense of despair and unease that deepens with every album.
What sets Immolation apart the most is the absolutely unmistakable songwriting style of Robert Vigna. His guitar work often feels closer to avant-garde dark compositions than traditional metal riffing, yet it keeps the listener in an iron grip. Together with Ross Dolan’s signature deep vocals, they create a sound impossible to confuse with any other death metal band — a fusion of chaos and precisely controlled destruction.
Despite their long history, Immolation still sound incredibly fresh today. Each new album proves that the band refuses to stagnate: their current output is darker, more mature, and more sonically refined than ever. Live, their material becomes even more intense — relying not on flashiness but on hypnotic focus, relentless groove, and a suffocating atmosphere that shows why Immolation remains one of the most respected names in extreme metal. This band is part of the golden legacy of BA. IMMOLATION show no signs of weakness even after all these years, and we’re excited to welcome them back!
