“So, why, after releasing our debut full-length album, did we decide to go back to digital EP format?” questions singer Devin Reiche. “Well, several months ago, we decided to bump up our go-to live growler for songs like “Devour” and “Strife,” Hanna Preston, to a full-time member, and fully commit to a dual clean/harsh vocal approach. This was a pretty big decision, and one that will inevitably result in a shift towards a heavier sound.
“The problem is, at the time, we had just finished our second album, which obviously reflects our previous tone and songwriting approach. So, rather than committing to a full album cycle’s worth of gigging for material that was not written with the current lineup in mind, we decided to take the three songs most reminiscent of our heretofore traditional sound—thrash-infused power metal—and release them as a their own EP as a ‘send-off’ to the classic sound, thereby opening up space on the second album for some material reflecting the more updated version of ANUBIS.”
“This EP marks the end of an era for us—a swansong that closes one chapter with fire before we dive into darker, heavier waters,” explains bassist Will Buckley. “These songs showcase the final form of the sound that built ‘Dark Paradise.’”
Fans of melodic, high speed, power metal take note on “Leper Lord” and the impending EP, ‘The Puppeteers.’ It serves as not only a continuation of the sound found on ANUBIS’ remarkable ‘Dark Paradise’ album, but also as a stop-gap as the quintet continues to play shows all over Southern California, including recent plays supporting Warbringer, Delain, Xandria and Dreadlands.
Track List:
1. Face the Puppeteers
2. The Hood Collector
3. Leper Lord
In the meantime, as the group readies their next chapter ‘Dark Paradise’ is still available on CD, limited colored (300) heartless purple vinyl and digital. Order now https://lnk.to/anubis

ANUBIS singer Devin Reiche may be a familiar name to fans of thrash and underground metal as he’s also the bassist in Bay Area thrashers Hatchet, but Devin actually lives in L.A. and power metal has always been his first love and calling. Working diligently Devin has developed his vocal abilities and become quite the commanding frontman.
Joining Devin in ANUBIS are guitarists Eleazar Llerenas (Delusional Fate) and bassist Will Buckley (Hydera) plus new members drummer Kenny Ravage (Black Mercy Riffs), guitarist Chase McGuckin (Demiser, Black Eucharist) and singer Hanna Preston – all musicians who’ve been cutting their teeth in the L.A. music scene.
