Suffer formed in Wolverhampton in late 2018 as a deathcore band with five members, drawing early attention through groove heavy writing and a slamming approach. The original formation featured Ash, Chobba, Jack, Kie and Coop, with its first live appearance taking place in April 2019 alongside Annotations Of An Autopsy in Birmingham. The debut release "Slerm" followed in July, opening a period that included the EP "Heavy Silence", the full length "The Sorrow We Sow, The Hatred We Know", several singles and videos, and extensive dates across the United Kingdom and Europe.
Suffer also shared stages with Decapitated, Black Tongue, Signs Of The Swarm, Gutrectomy, Filth and Waking The Cadaver, building its name through regular touring and frequent live appearances. Ash and Chobba departed in April 2024, and the transitional lineup issued "Feast Of Decay" and "Orphan" before another change in direction. By August 2025, vocalist Greg Hevican and guitarist Klaudiusz Trzebuniak had joined, with DC Sound Attack handling bookings and a new run of shows beginning soon after. "Pendulum Of Vengeance" arrived on March 13th, 2026, followed by "Soul From Flesh" on May 29th. The EP "Soul From Flesh" is the first complete release from this formation, issued independently with artwork by Blindsight Visions and additional artwork by Jack Kent.
"Soul From Flesh" contains five songs of compact deathcore built from low tuned groove, abrupt rhythmic drops and vocals placed at the front of the mix. Tracking and editing were handled by Anthony Wall at Firestorm Studios, while Will Cattanach completed tone design, mixing and mastering at Freewill Productions, shaping a sound dominated by low frequencies with enough percussion definition to stop the mix becoming a shapeless blur.
Music was written by Suffer, with lyrics by Greg Hevican and Jack Kent, and the words stay fixed on revenge, self destruction, and estrangement from the body, abandonment, anxiety, ambition and emotional numbness. Revenge appears as a cycle that reproduces itself, while bodily destruction becomes the image for personal change, escape and the rejection of one’s current self. Dreams and achievement are treated as sources of detachment, turning growth into regression and inner collapse, creating a bleak psychological thread beyond the physical attack.
Black metal shading enters near the closing stretch, adding a colder color while the main structure remains rooted in deathcore. The grooves strike with authority and the short format prevents the central ideas from thinning out across unnecessary sections, with each song tied to the same emotional descent. The range remains narrow, and some rhythmic turns arrive where an experienced deathcore listener will expect them, though "Soul From Flesh" sits above the anonymous middle of the genre, severe, focused and distinct enough for return visits, short of becoming a defining release for Suffer.
