TITHE: Communion In Anguish, The Vile Third LP From Portland-Based Dissonant Death Metal Trio, Is Now Streaming In Its Entirety; Album Drops Friday On Profound Lore Records
Stream TITHE’s Communion In Anguish HERE.
Communion In Anguish, the third album from Portland, Oregon-based extreme/death metal trio TITHE, can now be listened to in its monstrous entirety, ahead of its worldwide release this Friday on Profound Lore Records.
TITHE draws influence from many dimensions of ominous, extreme music and themes to manifest their distinctive, hypnotic, grinding, death metal. Composed of vocalist/guitarist Matt Eiseman, vocalist/bassist Alex Huddleston, and drummer Kevin Swartz, the trio converges to create an arrangement larger than the sum of its parts.
Expanding upon their acclaimed 2023-released Inverse Rapture LP, with Communion In Anguish, TITHE amps up the aggression and doubles down on the unrelenting atmosphere of its predecessor. The new addition of Alex Huddleston’s lower register growls combines with Eiseman’s distressed wails and Swartz’ driving rhythms to push the band into new sonic territory. Featuring artwork by Mitchell Nolte and produced/engineered by Keith Merrow at Merrowsound Studios, Communion In Anguish is the culmination of TITHE’s previous work, and it delivers with a honed and lethal sound.
Stream TITHE’s Communion In Anguish early on the Profound Lore YouTube channel RIGHT HERE.
Communion In Anguish will be released on LP, CD, MC, and digitally this Friday, September 19th. Find links to all preorders and presaves via Profound Lore Records where the video for “Burn The Throne Of God” is also playing HERE.

“Healthy amounts are borrowed from black, death, and doom metal, grind, and hardcore, as well as snippets of dense, impenetrable forces like Ulcerate and Portal, and the oppressive mayhem of Discordance Axis and Drouth.” – Decibel Magazine
“Known for fusing suffocating atmosphere with serrated aggression, TITHE... have evolved their already punishing sound into something even more ominous and commanding. With Communion In Anguish, the band pushes beyond the dense violence of 2023’s Inverse Rapture, carving deeper into a realm of hypnotic death metal and grind-informed menace... the album explores themes of spiritual disillusionment and systematic brutality.” – Metal Injection
“Unfettered and unrelenting death metal, a sound straight out of the underworld…” – New Noise Magazine
“…a seven-song banger that builds upon the band's foundation, TITHE weave a web showcasing hypnotic, pummeling death metal... TITHE, and Communion In Anguish, are worth the attention of extreme music fans who are bored with generic bands that aren't even attempting to have their own identity, and their passion overflows here.” – Blabbermouth
