After nearly five years, Canadian technical death metal juggernaut ARCHSPIRE erupt back into the spotlight with the official music video for Carrion Ladder, the first assault from their forthcoming album Too Fast to Die, set for release on April 10, 2026. Following the momentum of their JUNO Award–winning Bleed the Future (2021), the band push their craft into even more impossible territory — faster, tighter, and more surgically precise than ever. Carrion Ladder is the sound of a group refusing to slow down, redefine their limits, or acknowledge the laws of physics.
The track unleashes a barrage of hyperspeed riffing, gravity-defying drum work, and the signature machine-gun vocal delivery that has cemented ARCHSPIRE as one of the most relentless forces in modern metal. Every measure of Carrion Ladder is stacked with needlepoint technicality, executed with a level of cohesion only possible from a band operating at the absolute peak of their abilities. It’s not just fast — it’s architecturally complex, violently controlled, and unmistakably ARCHSPIRE.
The official music video mirrors the band’s dual identity: unmatched technical precision and a comedic self-awareness that has become part of their charm. Blending performance footage with absurd narrative chaos, the video jumps between blistering musicianship and tongue-in-cheek storytelling, creating a visual experience as entertaining as it is intense. It captures the spirit of a band that can be dead serious about their craft while never taking themselves too seriously.
With Carrion Ladder, ARCHSPIRE open the gates to a new era — one defined by even greater speed, tighter execution, and a fearless commitment to pushing extreme metal forward. From Vancouver to the world stage, ARCHSPIRE return with a sharpened vision and undeniable momentum. Too Fast to Die is coming, and ARCHSPIRE refuse to be forgotten.
