Opium Death reflects on the rich tapestry of influences that each member contributes, drawing parallels to the diverse sounds that iconic bands like Slayer have harnessed over the years. As they tease their upcoming debut album, set to drop on a special date, they spotlight the wide spectrum of metal subgenres it encompasses. The power of striking album artwork doesn't escape us, and we underscore its role in captivating the hearts of metal enthusiasts.
