Minneapolis, MN, Technical Deathcore juggernauts REAPING ASMODEIA are back with a venomous new offering, “Sanctuary Of Poison,” dropping August 1st, 2025 via Blood Blast Distribution . The single marks the second in a trilogy of releases the band has meticulously crafted, following their punishing previous track, “Shattered Leviathan.”
Produced by the band themselves and brought to sonic life by a stellar production team — including Adam Tucker (drum engineering at Signaturetone Recording), Mike Byrne (bass engineering at Transient Audio), and Daniel Koppy (vocal production and engineering) — the single was mixed and mastered by Zack Ohren at Castle Ultimate (SUFFOCATION,LL SHALL PERISH).
“ ‘Sanctuary of Poison’ was written from a different perspective within the band”, says drummer Daniel Koppy . “Not only was it conceptualized to be a counterpoint to our previous single, but we wanted to explore a darker and more groove-oriented sonic element by utilizing the 9-string register more heavily, all while staying true to our technical roots.”

The new single arrives after a period of reinvigoration for the band. Following their acclaimed 2021 release “Darkened Infinity” via Prosthetic Records—which saw REAPING ASMODEIA share the stage with genre giants like BORN OF OSIRIS, CRYPTOPSY, ABYSMAL DAWN, ORIGIN, and SIGNS OF THE SWARM —2024 brought a renewed spark to their lineup. With the return of original bassist Jakub Kingery and the addition of new lead vocalist Eric Keyes , the band enters a new chapter full of creative energy and intensity.
“We are thrilled to welcome Eric Keyes as the vocalist of REAPING ASMODEIA”, continues Koppy. “Eric has been a longtime friend and a staple in the Minnesota etal scene. For those who’ve caught our recent shows, the on-stage chemistry is undeniable. With Eric and Jakub onboard, the energy is electric and the creativity is flowing freely.”
Accompanied by a visually gripping music video, “Sanctuary Of Poison” promises a deeper dive into the band’s evolving sound—more dynamic, more melodic, and just as unrelenting.
“Sanctuary Of Poison” drops August 1st on all streaming platforms. Brace yourself for a fresh wave of technical brutality.
