Hammerheart Records has announced the reissue of death metal stalwarts Father Befouledās Morbid Destitution of Covenant (2010), set for release on 18th April, 2025.
Morbid Destitution of CovenantĀ is a standout in their discography. It fully embraces the Incantation-style of bleak, reverb-drenched death metal, featuring dense, churning guitar work, deep guttural vocals, and a funereal atmosphere.
The album solidified Father Befouledās reputation as torchbearers of the grim, oppressive side of death metal and has been praised for its commitment to the unholy, old-school aesthetic. The vinyl edition of the album sold out long ago, making it a sought-after collectorās item for underground death metal fans.

Fifteen years later, Morbid Destitution of Covenant remains just as crushing as the day it was released. A towering pillar of cavernous death metal, this album solidified Father Befouled as true heirs to the Incantation-drenched legacy of darkness and decay.
With raw yet deliberate riffs, a funeral-paced atmosphere, and an all-encompassing sense of rot, it continues to suffocate in the best way possible. The vinyl edition has long been sold out.
