Russian Death metallers GROND break through with the release of their first advance single and unveil the first details of their highly anticipated 3rd studio album, entitled “The Temple”. The new record will be released on April 30th through XTREEM MUSIC on CD and digital formats, and promises to cement the band as one of the most crushing forces in today’s Death Metal scene.

Formed in 2002 in Moscow by Kist (drums/vocals) and Dust (guitars), GROND officially began their journey in 2005 with the release of their first demo. After intense live activity and several lineup changes, the band consolidated their sound with the EP “Steel Coffins” and later with their debut full-length “Howling From the Deep”, marking the beginning of their oceanic and maritime-themed identity.

In 2016, they released their second album, “Worship the Kraken”, through Xtreem Music, further expanding their dark, sea-bound mythology and strengthening their position within the underground Death Metal scene. Following European festival appearances, continued live assaults, and additional lineup changes, the band eventually solidified its current formation: Kist (vocals), Void (guitars), Sarghas (bass), and Kadath (drums).

With this lineup, GROND have recorded their new conceptual album, “The Temple,” inspired by H.P. Lovecraft’s story of the same name and intertwined with the historical figure of German World War I U-boat commander Otto Eduard Weddigen. The album will be unleashed on April 30th, 2026 through Xtreem Music.

Tracklist for "The Temple":

01. Rotter Himmel

02. Weddigen

03. Pour le Merite

04. U-29

05. Dreadnought

06. Submergence

07. Radiant Fury

08. The Temple

09. Dark Solitude of the Sea

Release date for "The Temple" will be April 30th through Xtreem Music on CD & Digital formats.
