Biography

MURASHITA exploded onto the scene to showcase his ability to provide scorching riffs, powerful songwriting, and aggressive vocal style through his modern thrash band HEMOPTYSIS in 2007. Their debut full length, ‘MISANTHROPIC SLAUGHTER’ was met with major critical praise from a variety of critics. After their demise, he formed a self-titled solo project, releasing the debut EP ‘INESCAPABLE DAMNATION‘ in 2015.

‘DEPRAVED SANCTITY’, ensures the wait for new music has been worth it by including two big names in the scene: KEVIN TALLEY (SUFFOCATION, SIX FEET UNDER, CHIMAIRA) on drums and RODNEY MCGLOTHLIN (VOICE OF DISSENT) on bass. Blackened death elements edged with layered melodies add to a dynamic composition that continues to push MURASHITA’s sound further.

Reviews

“With outstanding guitar work, great lyrics and a complete lack of conformity to industry expectations, “Inescapable Damnation” is a metal manifestation.” 

– Full Metal Rock

“…There’s a thrash backbone in “Inescapable Damnation”, and Murashita has concocted riffs that not only get the adrenaline flowing and the blood pumping but also exude a sensation of grim menace — a sensation that’s magnified by the ravenous ferocity of his snarling voice. But there’s still more to this attention-grabbing song: It includes a guitar solo that reflects great melodic sensibility, in addition to physical dexterity; it’s a reminder that memorable soloing is about more than how fast you can shred…” 

– No Clean Singing

“…Masaki brings his lead guitar and scorching vocals back to the forefront with his solo debut and I am left completely jubilant at what I’ve been listening to…” Rated 5/5
