Death of the Cosmic

Death of the Cosmic is an EP by American melodic death-doom band Hinayana, released on August 28, 2020. It is their first release under Napalm Records and with their current bassist, Matt Bius. The EP was primarily self-produced by the band, with mixing/drum recording from Kevin Butler and mastering by Swallow the Sun's Juho Raiha. Guitars and bass were written and recorded by Casey Hurd, and Erik Shtaygrud wrote and recorded the solos on Death of the Cosmic and Cold Conception. The EP features guest appearances by late Tengger Cavalry frontman Nature Ganganbaigal and Hanging Garden's Toni Toivonen. Death of the Cosmic EP features 5 songs, including a re-recording of Pitch Black Noise. A music video for Cold Conception was released on July 7, 2020, and immediately received positive feedback. The video concept was developed by Hurd, and was directed and edited by Chris Thompson. Hurd explains that the EP "is based on the severed connection between ourselves and the cosmic, spiritual force in the universe and the loss of hope for the cold, modern world man has created in nature’s place.
