Feature @ latest issue#128 of Legacy mag/CD + English version of the interview
Hi!
we are stoked to be featured in the latest issue#128 of Legacy mag with a very positive Sublimation review (13/15 for those who care about scores), a participation in the Legacy 05/20 sampler CD with Βορά Των Αιώνων (Devoured By Aeons), as well as an interview. Oh and there’s also a free Napalm Death CD included, so there’s absolutely no reason for our German speaking friends not to collect it!
For those who don’t speak German, we got you covered by including the English version of the interview, so you may get a bit more of a background concerning Sublimation!
Without further ado, sit back, relax and click below!
Interview with Dominik Irtenkauf, August 2020. Answers by Panos Agoros (vocals/lyrics).

Bundling all things extreme and heavy into a unique, coherent music style known as astrogrind, and endorsing a cosmic, mind expanding concept with the associated aesthetics, Dephosphorus are a creative force on the edge of the contemporary music scene.
Maintaining since 2011 and the now classic “Axiom” mini-LP high standards and a consistent discographic presence, they have been graced with the enthusiastic support of a cult following comprised of eclectic music lovers from all over the globe.
“Ravenous Solemnity”, the 2nd full-length album succeeding to 2012’s critically and fan acclaimed “Night Sky Transform”, marks a milestone for the band. The addition behind the drum kit of John Votsis, one the most talented and dedicated musicians of the local Greek scene, has been instrumental in making of this dense, 43-minute-long odyssey Dephosphorus’ most intense and majestic effort to date.
Illustrated once again with stunning artwork by analog visionaries and friends Viral Graphics, packaged as a glorious gatefold double LP pressed on 180g heavy wax by the good care of the band’s allies and vinyl specialists 7 Degrees Records in cooperation with Handshake Inc., the latter providing for the first time North American distribution for the band, “Ravenous Solemnity” is destined to be a classic gem in any extreme audiophile’s record collection. A digital version is available for a reasonable fee from the band’s Bandcamp page, while a cassette and possibly a CD edition will follow at some point.
With Dephosphorus’ personnel being split between Greece and Sweden, the band is still not planning any live shows but it remains more dedicated than ever in challenging themselves and the underground audience. A collaborative split-LP effort with excellent Finnish comrades Haapoja approaches completion and will be released later this year.

“There Is A Color”: new track downloadable now!
There is a color,
yet unseen.There is a sea unsailed.
There is a sky,
bursting
awaiting to explode.There is an essence,
yet uncharted.
There is a soil untrod.
There is a sound,
yet unheard.
A function unthought of.There is a Void,
yet unperceived.
A Vacuum Invisible.
There is a color,
Slowly morphing.
A chasm unexplored.There is a colour,
yet unseen.

Split w/Wake review @ Stay Ahead metal blog
http://stayahead.blogspot.co.uk/2012/04/dephosporuswake-split-7.html
“(…) Side A is made up of three rapid-fire tracks from Dephosphorus. Unit is a huge sounding, wrecking ball of a song lasting for a minute and a half, and Dephosphorus even manage to inject some rock n roll influence into their sound. The Final Computronium begins in the same vein, but morphs into a more outright grind blast. The accented vocals of Panos Agoros making it sound even heavier. The Cosmologist starts off with a spoken word passage sitting atop of their instrumentation before one final lurching blast that completes their half of this split. (…) What a record this is. It takes multiple listens to fully appreciate, but both bands reward with skill and a rip-roaring morsel of grind at it’s best. As with other bands that 7 Degrees Records have released material with, both Dephosphorus and Wake make perfect bedfellows on what is an uncomplicated and blasting release.”
Wake/Dephosphorus split-7″EP official announcement & artwork reveal!
WAKE/DEPHOSPHORUS split-7”EP
7 Degrees Records – 7DR013
This March, 7 Degrees Records will bring together WAKE (Canada) and DEPHOSPHORUS (Greece) for what is destined to become a classic split-7”EP release!
Both bands have received wide praise in 2011 for their refreshing and relentless debuts… WAKE with “Leeches” have demonstrated an uncanny ability in delivering ferocious grinding hardcore, with monumental songwriting and crucial no-nonsensical lyrical topics. DEPHOSPHORUS on the other hand, caught everybody by surprise with “Axiom”’s astrogrind, an unheard combination of all things extreme and heavy with a mind expanding cosmic concept and awe inspiring aesthetics.
Both faces of the wax will be symmetrical with each band contributing 3 short, furious tracks. The challenging task of combining into a single coherent vision Wake’s sociopolitical rage with Dephosphorus’ allegorical stellar realm, has been assigned to renowned visual craftsmen Viral Graphics, for a result that is nothing short of breathtaking. The poster-insert is expanding appropriately the mayhem of the cover artwork.
Watch out for teaser tracks from both bands as the release will approach!
