FOURNIER hail from New Zealand, and began writing and recording their debut EP throughout 2023-2025. Apathetic toward ongoing stylistic and production trends in death metal, the trio seek a more fundamental approach to the form. Inspired by pioneers such as Morbid Angel, Immolation, and Timeghoul but also contemporary artists like Hyperdontia, Phrenelith, and Engulfed, FOURNIER create tense, violent, and overwhelmingly oppressive DEATH METAL. The four tracks captured on Fournier explore themes of societal and environmental oppression and collapse while positing a non-dualistic understanding of existence. At nearly 20 minutes in length, the dark labyrinths FOURNIER create here lay an estimable foundation for more mind-melting in the ​near future.
