In honor of the 25th anniversary of System of the Animal, the current lineup of the Long Island-based metal outfit Pyrexia recently re-recorded the album. Production value also played a key role in the new version.

“I don’t think a lot of people were ready for such a mix of brutal death metal vs. beatdown hardcore,” guitarist Chris Basile wrote in a press release. “When people hear this material with the new production, combined with the fact that the music was written in the mid-90s. I think it puts Pyrexia in a whole new light for a lot of people.”

It’s anyone’s guess if other additions in Pyrexia’s discography will also get a new production makeover.

Tickets to see Pyrexia play Brass Mug in Tampa on Tuesday, Aug. 8 are still available and start at $17. Subscribe to Creative Loafing newsletters.
