As we move through August, the band is gearing up for live dates and an important release later this year. We have also been busy writing and fleshing out our fifth album entitled MAZ, which we plan to begin recording in the dead of Winter.

We are a little over a week away from our New York performance with Malignancy. Immediately following that show at Lucky 13 in Brooklyn, NY, we head to Philadelphia at Bonk’s Bar, Washington, D.C. at Pie Shop, and West Virginia at 123 Pleasant St. These shows are a focused East Coast run to make up for the dates we had to cancel a couple of years ago when the van broke down. We’re really looking forward to playing each city.

Alongside the upcoming performances, we’re pleased to announce a double album scheduled for release on Halloween 🎃 through Pathologically Explicit Records. This will be the first time Passage has been issued on vinyl, and it will also include an unreleased 1993 demo entitled “On the Eve of Battle”, plus a selection of live recordings from the same period—rare material from 1992-93 that has remained unavailable until now. 

Full details on the shows are in our Shows section. Pre-order information and further album details will be shared as they become available. We appreciate the continued support and look forward to seeing many of you out this month. 🤘

Formed in 1988, Viogression established its presence in the metal underground with a series of demos, setting the stage for their critically acclaimed debut, Expound & Exhort (1991, Tombstone Records). This landmark release earned widespread praise and secured the band a world tour alongside luminaries Death and Pestilence. Their second album, Passage (1992, Progressive Records), released incomplete, led to a nine-year hiatus. Reuniting in 2003, Viogression began writing new material, culminating in, A Pure Formality (2014, Temple of Darkness Records), which ignited the band’s resurgence and captivating live performances.

Defying 2020’s global turmoil, they delivered 3rd Stage of Decay, (2022, Satanath Records and Moribund Records). In 2024, Viogression began the recording process for their fourth album, Thaumaturgic Veil, released July 11,2025. Thaumaturgic Veil delivers a transformative new chapter in their distinguished legacy. Reviews of Viogression's Thaumaturgic Veil praise the album for blending brutal old-school death metal with creative, metaphysical themes. They describe the record as a cerebral, complex, and forward-thinking experience that showcases the band's instrumental proficiency and honors the genre's legacy while pushing its boundaries.
