Canadian deathcore band Despised Icon have unveiled Reaper, the newest track from their forthcoming album Shadow Work, arriving via Nuclear Blast Records. The single features guest vocal appearances from Tom Barber of Chelsea Grin and Scott Ian Lewis of Carnifex, uniting three pillars of modern deathcore on one explosive track.
Reaper delivers everything fans expect from Despised Icon.
The song’s morbid melodies and relentless pacing highlight the sharpened brutality of Shadow Work, the group’s seventh full-length and one of their most dynamic releases to date.
