On March 7th, Colorado’s brutal deathcore denizens Crown Magnetar will unleash their new EP, Punishment, via Unique Leader Records. Once again helmed by producer-turned-bassist Mike Sahm, this upcoming record continues the band’s release-a-year streak after 2024’s re-mixed and re-mastered The Prophet of Disgust EP For a preview of Punishment, the video for the new single, “Barbed Wire Noose”, can be viewed now here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VP1e_4lVCRU
Vocalist Dan Tucker comments: “‘Barbed Wire Noose’ will be the third song released from our upcoming EP, ‘Punishment‘, and continues our deliverance of relentless, in-your-face deathcore. Did you really expect anything less from Crown Magnetar?”

Since their debut, Crown Magnetar have amassed a fan base around the world, delivering chugging deathcore brutality across a handful of releases, while sharing stages with the likes of Lorna Shore, Dying Fetus, Suicide Silence, Born of Osiris, Carnifex, Spite, Enterprise Earth and more. With upcoming release Punishment, they are once again out for blood—and buckets of it. Fans will surely devour this EP with its over-the-top titles of “Barbed Wire Noose,” “Nailed the Fuck Down”, “Bringer Of Dead Light” and “Decapitation Ritual”, which are as much a brutal blast as the blazing beats and double bass that fill them.
