DEVOLVER - Merciless Storm (OFFICIAL GUITAR & BASS PLAYTHROUGH) Melodic Death Metal - Support DEVOLVER here : https://linktr.ee/devolverab
Grande Prairie, Canada's rising metal outfit Devolver, returns with a vengeance, announcing the release of their sophomore album, "Non Compos Mentis", out August 22nd, 2025. Produced by genre heavyweight Mark Lewis, whose credits include Whitechapel, Trivium, and DevilDriver, the album marks a seismic evolution in Devolver’s sound, melding Gothenburg style melodic death metal with the raw intensity of early 2000s metalcore.
"Non Compos Mentis" is more than an album; it’s a visceral listening experience. The album features a refined tracklist culled from over 20 demos, each song built collaboratively from riffs and skeletons crafted by guitarists Devin Babcock and Jayde Penner, resulting in a relentless, emotionally charged journey that’s both technically precise and soulfully raw.
The artwork was created by legendary metal illustrator Travis Smith (Opeth, Avenged Sevenfold, Soilwork)

The band comments on the album's release:
“We think Non Compos Mentis will be embraced by fans of our first album; it’s a huge evolution of our sound. Our first album was a passion project for Devin, but this record is what the five of us sound like collaborating as a unit. The razor-sharp production from Mark Lewis helped us push this thing over the edge, into something we think people will grab onto. We want to give people the feeling we felt when we first heard our favourite bands, and the albums that made us fall in love with music."
With each track on the album as a chapter in a larger emotional and sonic narrative, Devolver's "Non Compos Mentis" represents a bold leap forward and is recommended for fans of Swedish melodic death metal and classic metalcore. Think the melodic brutality of In Flames and Dark Tranquillity, fused with the punch of Killswitch Engage and As I Lay Dying.
