Greek progressive groove metal band ORIA have unleashed their highly anticipated sophomore album, “This Future Wants Us Dead“, available worldwide today, April 25, 2025, via Theogonia Records in CD Digipack and digital formats.

A bold conceptual work of art, “This Future Wants Us Dead” immerses listeners in a ravaged dystopian landscape, blending crushing riffs, intricate rhythms, and haunting melodies into a gripping narrative that explores the dark crossroads of progress, destruction, and redemption.
With a sound that sits confidently alongside heavyweights like Gojira, Mastodon, and Lamb of God, ORIA deliver a record thatโ€™s as sonically punishing as it is emotionally resonant.

Through a cinematic fusion of ferocity and atmosphere, the album confronts critical themes including environmental collapse, technological domination, and social isolation, challenging listeners to reflect on humanityโ€™s impact on the worldโ€”and the hope that still lingers beyond the wreckage.
Each track unfolds like a chapter in an epic, where man battles machine, chaos threatens order, and personal survival comes at a high cost.

ORIAโ€™s evolving sound is fully realized here: a seamless blend of technical precision and visceral power, shifting effortlessly between thunderous grooves and eerie, melodic textures.
“This Future Wants Us Dead” is more than an albumโ€”itโ€™s an immersive experience that demands your attention.

The album was recorded by Nick Grey at Red House Music Studio (Thessaloniki), with drum editing by Defkalion Dimos and mixing/mastering by Steve Lado at SL Studios (Athens).
The powerful cover artwork and layout by Nasia Stylidou (Decomposition) visually reflect the albumโ€™s stark, unsettling beauty.
