EPK – CHUNKED Inhaling the Infestation (Gore House Productions)

Publicist – Jon Asher – jon[@]ashermediarelations[.]com

“I think that people will like to hear more material that follows the same path of the EP with the obvious addition of newer structures, variations, and influences. Now that this band is playing live shows, I took the live presence more into account while writing the material. This upcoming album is going to make our fans drag their knuckles on the ground like a Neanderthal and de-revolutionize back to their primitive state. The singles will do the same thing.” – Arian Mauk – Chunked

For fans of Mortician, Sanguisugabogg, Torsofuck, Bodybox, Fluids

======================================================

About The Album Artwork:

The album artwork is just the outline of a cave, which walks in line with the initial idea I had for chunky cavernous death metal.

About the album as a whole (LYRICALLY & MUSICALLY):

This EP is a simple and effective type of death metal with no extra flair. Death Metal down to its core.

Track by Track (LYRICALLY & MUSICALLY):

1. “Pulsing Excrement” is about a big ol’ pile of shit. The main focus of this track was to kick open the door with an instant hook and end with a slowed breakdown.

2. “Liquid Cranial Detonation” follows the topic of someone’s brain and skull exploding. Simple as that. It is a short track that is meant to be a constant headbang.

3. “Concrete Veins” is a very literal song, being about veins made of concrete. It is a short but sweet track that dips heavy into the hardcore influence mentioned previously.

4. “Inhaling the Infestation” is a power ballad about a swarm of insects slowly taking over a human body, very painfully and meticulously. It is a well-structured and catchy track that will make your knuckles sink towards the ground and start grinding across the floor.

5. “Putridity” takes a different and a little more specific route than the other tracks. The lyrics describe a pile of strangled and dead elderly people who have been stacked and stored for months. Rotting and reeking. The usual.

6. “Submerged in Rotten Sewage” wraps up this EP following a similar structure as track 4. Once again, the lyrics are very literal to the song’s name. They’re about getting submerged in slimy, rotting, thick, putrid sewage.

======================================================

Fun Facts:

1. This whole EP was written, recorded, mixed and ready to be mastered in the span of only 3 days.

2. Chunked has a father/son duo (Arian and Dustin Mauk) and has two sets of twins. (Cole and James both have twin brothers.)

Kingsport, Tennessee, USA’s brutal and unrelenting death metal act Chunked are pleased to announce their signing with Gore House Productions for the digital release of their EP “Inhaling the Infestation”. The record is a knuckle-dragging testament to primitive death metal and is set to drop digitally on March 15th and physical CD / Cassette on May 3rd, 2024.

Founded in 2023 by the visionary Arian Mauk, Chunked emerged with the sole purpose of crafting a personal favorite in the realm of death metal—something heavy, simple, and undeniably powerful. Initially intended as a one-off project, Chunked gained unexpected traction, leading Mauk to assemble a full band and continue the journey into the abyss of primal, visceral sound. He shares his thoughts on the upcoming release:

“This EP is a simple and effective type of death metal with no extra flair. Death metal down to its core. I wanted to create a memorable experience with this EP. With tracks like “Liquid Cranial Detonation” and “Concrete Veins” being shorter and catchier, and tracks like “Inhaling the Infestation” being more well structured and longer. For our next release, which will be a full-length, our fans can expect a minimum of 30 minutes of material.”

The artwork for “Inhaling the Infestation” is a cave outline that perfectly encapsulates the cavernous and chunky death metal that Chunked delivers—a no-frills, down-to-the-core death metal experience. It will make fans drag their knuckles on the ground like a Neanderthal and de-evolution back to their primitive state. It is recommended for fans of Mortician, Sanguisugabogg, and Torsofuck.
