Los Angeles based Death-Thrash act DIABOLOGY presents the new single offering, “Them!.” Imagining the horrors of AI in the form of killer robots through a B-horror movie lens, the track provides a first taste of the upcoming EP, Demons and Parasites. The EP is scheduled for release on February 12, 2027, via Dissonant Hymns Records.
On “Them!” DIABOLOGY comments:
“The song’s title was inspired by a 50s B-horror movie of the same name about giant killer ants created by atom bombs. The movie was inspired by the atomic terror of the time, and with all of the discussion about AI leading to human extinction, I can’t help but feel that it’s the modern atomic terror. All of the band members are fans of sci-fi, and there’s definitely hints of Terminator and Star Trek inspiring these lyrics. These are probably some of my most heavy handed lyrics, but I don’t feel any need for subtly in saying ‘Fuck AI’.”
“Them!” demonstrates the diversity of DIABOLOGY’s genre-fusing sound. Opening with a striking drum fill followed by sweeping guitars and a galvanizing thrash riff, the track is heavy, melodic and catchy. Both harsh and clean vocals are present over the arrangement alongside guitar leads that are woven throughout “Them!.”
Demons and Parasites was produced, mixed and mastered by Charles Elliott. The EP was recorded at Tastemaker Audio. Album cover artwork is by Anditya Dita (Poison Project).
About DIABOLOGY:
Based out of Los Angeles, CA, DIABOLOGY’s sound began rooted in thrash metal and has subsequently expanded their genre influences to include elements of death metal, groove metal, black metal, doom metal. Active in the close-knit LA metal scene, Jesse Bergen (guitar and vocals), Bradley Irving (guitar), Vikram Sinha (bass), and Roan Quirarte (drums), united with a shared creative direction to combine the brutality and technicality of modern metal with the melody and energy of classic thrash.
Beginning to make a name for themselves on the local circuit, DIABOLOGY garnered international acclaim with the release of the debut full length, Nobody Believes Me, through their own label, Dissonant Hymns Records. In the fall of 2022, DIABOLOGY released their sophomore LP, Father of Serpents also on Dissonant Hymns Records. Produced by Dave Kaminsky (STONE HEALER, FIRES IN THE DISTANCE) and mastered by Ryan Williams (THE BLACK DAHLIA MURDER, Metal Blade Records), the album took the bands to new heights, earning them features in Metal Injection, No Clean Singing, and Knotfest. 2025 saw the arrival of the standalone single offering, “The Last of All Kings.”
In the forthcoming EP, Demons and Parasites, scheduled for release on February 12, 2027, via Dissonant Hymns Records, DIABOLOGY delves into themes of AI in the form of killer robots as well as drawing on Greek mythology to explore struggles with substance abuse.
