Northern Californian deathcore juggernauts SALTWOUND have released their eagerly-awaited, debut full-length album, The Temptation Of Pain, today with SharpTone Records.

A colossal beast, seething with furious brutality that roars to life with the most ferocious riffs metalcore fans will hear this year, The Temptation Of Pain, rears its head with intense chaos, fusing elements from deathcore and metalcore on tracks like ‘Walking The Blade,’ ‘Hollow‘ and ‘Severance‘.

Today, SALTWOUND reveal a new video for their vicious track ‘Empty From The Start.’

Commenting on the track, vocalist Spencer Timmons says: 

The entertainment business isn’t a meritocracy. The most talented people are rarely the most successful. It’s usually vice versa. So many big deals just require viral overnight success and no talent whatsoever. If you start from emptiness, you’ll continue to be empty though.

Adding about the album he says: 

To me, ‘Temptation’ is more like attraction. As a culture and a society, we’re attracted to things that hurt us and cause us pain. Negativity gets more ‘clicks’.

These aren’t positive things that uplift our lives, but we gravitate to them. It applies to my personal life. Being in a band is hard, so why don’t I put my effort into going back to school and getting a safe nine-to-five job? It’s because I’m attracted to what causes me stress. The same goes for relationships. So, every song touches on an element of being drawn to what causes hurt and pain.

Sporting a hunger bordering on bloodlust, Saltwound uncompromisingly pursue progression at all costs. The Sacramento, CA band—Spencer Timmons [vocals], Shawn Williams [guitar], and Marty Delgado [bass]—deftly tame a chaotic hybrid of deathcore and metalcore with earthquaking grooves and insidious melodies, proudly dubbed “NORCAL VIOLENCE.
 
Buzzing with millions of streams, they continue to fearlessly level up on their 2024 full-length debut for SharpTone RecordsThe Temptation of Pain.
 
With every release, we try to create something that sounds different from what we’ve done in the past,” notes Spencer. “We never want to be a one-trick pony. It’s easy to find a niche and suck the well dry. We’re trying to evolve though. I think we achieved that with this album.

During 2020, the musicians initiated this perpetual forward motion. Vol. 1: (DEAD)WEIGHT EP introduced their inimitable intensity to the masses. The title track ‘(DEAD)WEIGHT’ amassed over 1.6 million Spotify streams followed by ‘Assault // Split Lip’ with 516K Spotify streams. The momentum only picked up with VOL. 2: DESPAIR [2022] and In the Shadow of the Valley of Death [2023]. Along the way, they shared the stage with everyone from Maylene and the Sons of Disaster and Islander to Bleeding ThroughOv SulfurAttilaGideon, and Impending Doom.
