Formed in St. Louis, Missouri, **Intruded** is a fresh melodic deathcore act that released their debut single *Apartheid State* on May 17th, 2025\. 

> The track confronts systemic violence, racialized oppression, and the machinery of dehumanization—delivering a raw, unfiltered reflection on power, survival, and resistance. - **Intruded**

Intruded quickly showcases a wildly destructive sound with punchy drums, explosive down-tuned guitar chugs and ferocious screams–all bundled in a crystal clear mix. The band may be new to the scene but they are already delivering a crushingly heavy sound that shows exciting promise considering this is their debut single and already sounds like a well-established band.

Intruded expertly utlizes dark, unrelenting instrumental riffs while brutally intense raw vocals take the forefront of the mix. Filled with all the slowed deathcore breakdowns, slamming hardcore beatdown, and impactful drum grooves you could hope for, Intrudes creates an impressive sound, particularly for so early in their career.

Drawing influence from genre-leaders like **Knocked Loose**, **Loathe**, and **Suicide Silence**, Intruded creates a distinct sound that is modern yet pays homage to the nostalgic deathcore sounds of the 2000s and 2010s.

Overall *Apartheid State* is a high-energy, visceral track that leaves us excited to here more from Intruded. [You can stream *Apartheid State* out everywhere now](https://ffm.to/goax93r?ref=themetalverse.net).
