Imperium Delirium
Imperium Delirium is the fifth studio album by American deathcore band Shadow of Intent. The album was released on June 27, 2025. It has spawned several singles including "Flying The Black Flag", "Feeding the Meatgrinder", "Infinity of Horrors", "Mechanical Chaos", and the title track.
The album was met with critical acclaim, showing "a more aggressive and polished sound" while simultaneously maintaining some of the melodic elements introduced in previous projects. Boolin Tunes has stated that the band brought back "many of the deathcore elements that have largely been absent from their sound since Reclaimer while managing to expand on their ever-maturing songwriting by blending a lot of these elements with the more death metal-adjacent elements that were omnipresent on Melancholy and Elegy."
