Italian modern death metal band HELLUCINATION released a crushing new single titled “Petrified.” The track serves as the first preview from their highly anticipated upcoming full length album Penumbral, which is scheduled for release on October 9. The new single is currently available for streaming and radio airplay, offering listeners an aggressive glimpse into a much darker and more introspective chapter for the group.

Musically, the upcoming record blends the sheer brutality of death metal and black metal with progressive elements, djent, hardcore, and post metal. Driven by technical precision and intricate rhythmic structures, Penumbral operates as a massive concept album exploring profound themes of grief, obsession, and loss. Thematically, the project follows a deeply connected pair torn apart by death, diving into the devastating consequences of refusing to accept the natural cycle of life and the ultimate necessity of letting go.
