discography:

Autumn Lies Buried continues to evolve their sound, which draws from a diverse palette of influences including slam, mathcore, hardcore, hip hop, and deathcore.
The result is what the band describes as
“a beating with a cinder block’ that creates a cathartic experience for listeners.”
Now they have released the EP ‘Mob Mentality‘ via Exitus Stratagem Records.
Autumn Lies Buried:
“‘Mob Mentality’ is a reiteration of what we were talking about in previous releases like Inhuman Skin. The common people have been trained to think they are powerless to change their course in life. They think that the hands of the powerful will hold then down generation after generation and that’s ‘Just the way it is’. Well we are preaching sin with Mob Mentality, and by sin, We mean Strength In Numbers. We cannot be held down if we band together against the grifters, charlatans, oppressors and connivers. Burn it all. Were trying to give fans a cathartic experience. Something to blow off some steam to after a hard day at work be it blue or white collar. We make music for the people of the workforce, with whom we commiserate and always have at heart.”
‘Strappado’:
“A concept on human trafficking likening them to medieval torturers.”
‘Blood Money’:
“A song about killing your masters. Plain and simple. We are dogs who bite the hand that feeds because it tastes better than the food.”
‘Guillotine’:
“What tyrants deserve. Classic, Elegant.”
‘Told Off Witta Sawed Off’:
“An anthem for those who run their mouths but never put their words to action. Featuring Dustin Jamaal Mitchell of Filth.”
‘Debt of Silence’:
“A ritual dismemberment of corrupt leadership. Cutting of the tongue is symbolic as well as literal.”
Vocalist Kaelin Wilkins:
“Given the current political climate of the US, I felt it necessary to write about silencing a lot of them. I felt like America just needs a hard reset, and it starts by not giving these fascists in free-world clothing the clout they have. They owe us a debt of silence.”
Autumn Lies Buried explains the EP:
“The album is a call to arms against injustice. Fuel for the fire that cleanses.”
And the band continues by commenting on the cover artwork:
“A good old stand off between oppressed peoples and the ones who step on them. A fractured society.”
Autumn Lies Buried about some fun facts and story angles:
“This is the first band Kaelin has ever been in. And they pretty much had to learn as they went. If you listen to all releases you can hear them consistently become a better vocalist as time went on…
Our most popular song ‘Brothel’ was written as a joke/troll after some old bigots in Manchester TN started trashing our music online after a show there. They were calling us Trashy rap over guitars and a disgrace to metal so we said f*ck it we’ll make a whole rap metal song to spite. Then it blew up…
There is not one original member in this 15 year old band. Autumn Lies Buried is a shambling undead terror. Constantly replacing its rotting parts with new ones from fresh kills…
We did a whole Midwest tour in the middle of August in a black bus with no air conditioning, sweating straight balls. Don’t ever tell us we ain’t earned our stripes…
We almost won a battle of the bands in California to play Wacken Open Air in Germany. We got all the way to the finals and had to fly to San Diego to perform our set all to get screwed by the promoter. I’ll never forget seeing the homeless people sleeping right outside the hotel we were staying at. It puts life in perspective really quickly.”
Earlier on in 2025 Autumn Lies Buried had already released single/video ‘Debt of Silence‘.
The track delivers the band’s signature combination of breakneck energy, socially conscious lyrics, and unrelenting heaviness that fans have come to expect.
