Epitaphe released III on 11 September through Aesthetic Death, on CD and vinyl, with Gurgling Gore handling the cassette.
After what II did for them, the obvious move would have been to change something. They have not. III takes every element that identified the last two records and sharpens it: the death metal foundation pushed harder and colder, and the acoustic passages and atmospheric interludes kept in place to hold the weight of it up.
It is their most ambitious record and their longest, and it does not try to be anything other than more of what they already were.
