PRODUCT DETAILS
Reeking Aura, a five piece death metal group made of seasoned veterans from the NY/NJ underground scene, returns in 2026 with their second album On the Promise of the Moon. Tracked at OK Studios in Kinderhook, NY then mixed and mastered by the legendary Dan Swano, On the Promise of the Moon builds on the "Fires in Deep Frost" EP released in 2025 with a dark, melodic atmosphere that does not compromise their brutal, guttural NY roots.Returning from the first album are guitarists Terrell Grannum (Thaetas), and Rick Habeeb (Grey Skies Fallen) as well as vocalist William Smith (Afterbirth). Drummer Hudson Barth and bassist TJ Coon (both also in Trog) round out the lineup and bring fresh blood to the band, with all members having contributed to the writing process. The album also features contributions from guest vocalists Eston Browne (Vulnificus) and Jon Berg (The Path) as well as string arrangements by Ben Karas (Slaughtersun).Reeking Aura began in 2019 and promptly recorded their debut EP "Beneath the Canopy of Compost" and first album "Blood and Bonemeal" with Colin Marston in Queens, NYC. In addition to NY and NJ gigs supporting Malevolent Creation, Horrendous, Crypt Sermon and Mortician, they have toured the North and Southeast U.S. with such acts as Replicant, Atoll, Pyrexia, Hath, Animals Killing People, False Gods and Carrion Vael.
