LETHARGICA Release Crushing New Single “JAMAIS_VU”

Okinawa, Japan downtempo/deathcore outfit LETHARGICA have returned with their devastating new single “JAMAIS_VU”, a suffocating blend of slow, crushing grooves, bleak atmospherics, and unrelenting vocal ferocity. Known for crafting soundscapes that feel both massive and claustrophobic, the band pushes their signature heaviness to new extremes in this latest offering.

“JAMAIS_VU” unfolds with ominous ambience before dropping into gut-punching riffs and glacially-paced breakdowns that shake the ground beneath the listener. The song’s title—referring to the unsettling sense of unfamiliarity in a known situation—mirrors the track’s eerie atmosphere, dissonant guitar work, and jarring rhythmic shifts.

Every element of the song is meticulously placed, from the cavernous drum tones to the layered vocal assaults that alternate between guttural growls and piercing screams. The production captures the band’s balance of oppressive weight and haunting emptiness, allowing moments of silence to hit as hard as the riffs themselves.

“JAMAIS_VU” is out now on all major streaming platforms, solidifying LETHARGICA’s status as one of Japan’s most formidable forces in extreme music. With this release, the band proves that their downtempo brutality and suffocating atmosphere can leave a mark that’s impossible to forget.
