““Demolate” is a word we created just for this album, a brutal combination of demolish and annihilate. The song is for anyone who’s ever been pushed to the edge. For the outcasts and black sheep who’ve been broken down and told they’re crazy for not fitting in. It’s pure rage and payback no forgiveness, no mercy. You reap what you sow. (Tim Scott, Methane)

METHANE – Release new single “Research Chemicals”  – New album “Demolate”  out October 2, 2026 (Fireflash Records/Edel)

The crowd yelled, “Play faster!” They did! METHANE is ready to unleash their explosive new album, “Demolate”, on October 2nd through Fireflash Records.

Today, the Swedish Thrash Metal force reveals their new single “Research Chemicals”.

“The track is a super soldier story with a dark sense of humor and a taste of twisted irony. The government pumps him full of chemicals and he loves it. I grew up around Vietnam vets, my father, my stepfather, their friends. They came home broken from a crazy war, experimented on with drugs, left with PTSD. I got to experience all of their insanity“, comments vocalist Tim Scott.

This is METHANE at its most vicious

“Demolate” will be released on CD and colored vinyl, as well as on various bundles in the label Bandcamp shop and bandshop.

Born in 2012, METHANE quickly combusted, reverting to the pure, unadulterated thrash metal roots of its founders, Tim Scott (formerly of Death Metal cult act REVENANT, with John McEntee of INCANTATION) and Jimi Mästerbo. A relentless touring machine, METHANE has left a trail of destruction across countless stages in Europe and the U.S. through headline runs, support slots with bands like WHIPLASH, WARBRINGER, NERVOSA, MASSACRE, and festival appearances such as „Sabaton Open Air“, „Speed Metal Party“, „In Flammen“ and others.

Their sound is a blistering, high-speed assault designed for the pit.

Also check the first single and video clip for “360° of Destruction“, which will also be the opening track of the album.
