The Mother of Virtues

New York City's progressive death metal newcomers PYRRHON (pronounced peer-on) emerge from the urban decay with a nightmarish offering of cerebral, extreme metal. The Mother of Virtues is a mind bending merger of clanging death metal, surreal psychedelia, dark jazz rhythms and delirious storytelling. Recorded with Ryan Jones (Today is the Day, Mutilation Rites) and mastered by Colin Marston (Gorguts, Krallice), The Mother of Virtues takes the listener on a harrowing journey into the darkest corners of musical extremity.

The N.Y. technical death metal band Pyrrhon play most everything but straightforward death or doom, hardcore or noise rock on their excellent second album, The Mother of Virtues. Instead, they push those elements together to craft complicated, personal tantrums that lash at the bounds of strict genre acceptability.
