Artist: Adept
Name Of Song: Heaven
Album: Blood Covenant
Year of Release: 2025

This year the summer ended with ... ADEPT! Swedish metalcore 
powerhouse ADEPT rise again, ushering in a fierce new era with their long- 
awaited fifth studio album, Blood Covenant, out October 24, 2025 via 
Napalm Records. Marking a bold new era after nearly a decade of silence, 
Blood Covenant captures the band at their most intense, dynamic, and 
emotionally resonant to date across eleven tightly crafted tracks. 
Formed in the early 2000s in Trosa, Sweden, ADEPT helped shape the early 
European metalcore landscape, rising to prominence through passionate 
songwriting, high-octane shows, and raw emotional energy. Following their 
fiery comeback at Core Fest 2024, the release of the anthemic singles 
“Heaven” and “YOU”, and numerous explosive festival performances, the 
band unveils Blood Covenant, redefining their sound with sharpened 
aggression, cinematic scope, and emotional depth. 
Drenched in vivid hues of red, Blood Covenant is a raw, unflinching 
reflection on scars carried, battles fought, and the hunger to feel something 
genuine. Opening with the intense title track “Blood Covenant”, the album 
sets a brooding tone that echoes through the record. “Heaven”, drags the 
listener through a storm of guilt and fast-paced riffs, while the hard-hitting 
“Define Me” follows with an imposing attitude and snapping aggression, 
underlining its uncompromising message of self-reclamation. Both tracks 
are marked by ADEPT’s signature blend of emotional intensity and 
unrelenting breakdowns. “YOU” dives deep into the emotional wreckage of 
love lost, with swelling, cathartic guitar leads and honest, bleeding heart 
lyricism. “Time Is a Destroyer” pulses with urgency and existential dread, 
unfolding over a haunting acoustic backdrop accented by swelling strings, 
while “Parting Ways” channels melodic death metal energy, shifting 
seamlessly between soaring clean vocals and anguished shouts, capturing a 
moment of vulnerability wrapped in restrained heaviness and reflection. 
“Filthy Tongue” dives headfirst into brooding industrial terrain, fusing harsh 
textures and hypnotic rhythms into a raw, relentless beast. Tracks like 
“Ignore the Sun” lean into darker, more cinematic territory, introducing 
eerie ambient layers and post-metal textures that enhance the record’s 
emotional complexity. “The Rapture of Dust”, the album’s closer, collapses 
the record into a final, sweeping moment of reflection—crushing and 
beautiful in equal measure. 
Produced by Henrik Udd (Bring Me The Horizon, Architects) together with 
guitarist Gustav Lithammer and vocalist Robert Ljung at Henrik Udd 
Recording, the album boasts a sonically expansive and emotionally intimate 
production. Mixed by Henrik Udd and mastered by Thomas "Plec" Johansson 
(Soilwork, Dynazty) at The Panic Room, Blood Covenant wields immense 
weight and clarity without sacrificing any of its raw energy. 
With a legacy spanning two decades—including global tours with genre 
titans like Underoath, A Day To Remember, and Bring Me The Horizon— 
ADEPT now stand at the threshold of their most vital chapter yet. As they 
prepare to embark on their massive 20-Year Anniversary Tour this winter, 
Blood Covenant doesn’t just mark a comeback. It redefines the band— 
scarred but unshaken, and more inspired than ever.
