Notes
Ninth Realm is the Maryland-based band behind A Fate Unbroken, released on 4 November 2022 through Mercenary Press. The release runs nine tracks and presents a compact, fast-moving mix of death/thrash, crossover, and traditional heavy metal, with blackened vocals and sword-and-sorcery themes shaping the record’s sound and imagery. The album page lists the track sequence and confirms the label’s London base, while the Bandcamp release date matches the November 2022 rollout. The promotional description frames the record as a blend of elaborate riffing, hooks, breakdowns, and old-school metal energy, with the band’s DMV identity emphasized on the release page.
The line-up and studio credits should be taken from the Metal Archives page once the exact entry is confirmed, but the available release materials already establish the core technical profile: raw but structured songwriting, sharp guitar leads, and a thrash-forward rhythm attack. The strongest source for audio context is the official Bandcamp page and the premiere coverage around the release, which place the album on Mercenary Press and date it to 4 November 2022. A confirmed YouTube upload of the full album is also available for reference as a release video.
