$Cognizance Witness Marks - Official Video UK Technical/Death Metal institution Cognizance unveil their first single Witness Marks off their 4th full-length album In Light, No Shape coming 1st May 2026 via Willowtip Records. In Light, No Shape is available for preorders on CD/LP/Digital. Order via Willowtip ► https://bit.ly/inlightnoshape-willowtip Order via Bandcamp ► https://bit.ly/inlightnoshape-bandcamp In Light, No Shape is a masterful Progressive Death Metal opus, rich in texture and atmospheric detail, delivering everything long-time listeners crave while channeling the mid-90s technical extremity of Death, Extol, and Meshuggah. This time, the band deliberately fractures the conventions of modern extreme production, opting instead for a more organic and visceral mix that sharpens the defining traits of their work. In Light, No Shape marks the first lineup shift in a decade, as the band sharpen from a quintet to a quartet with founding guitarist Alex Baillie stepping forward as vocalist while retaining guitar duties, following the 2023 departure of founding vocalist Henry “Big Mac” Pryce. “This record is a defining milestone for us. Taking on vocals has pushed us to re-engineer how we experiment with the blend of elements in our sound, unlocking new creative pathways to compliment the core identity of the band. What you will hear are four dudes all adding their flavours to the melting pot to create a body of work that felt completely natural to us.” Alex Baillie (Vocals/Guitar) Mix and Master by Ronnie Björnström (AEON, BLOOD RED THRONE). Artwork by Jef Whitehead (NAILS, LEVIATHAN). Produced by Alex Baillie and Apostolis Karydis. Photography by Nadine Geuter.
