In Throne Of Bone, While the chorus provides brief structure amidst the chaos, the track wastes no time in descending back into sheer sonic destruction, showcasing STILLBIRTH’s trademark ability to balance groove with extremity.
Survival Protocol continues the apocalyptic saga first told on Annihilation of Mankind (2018) and Homo Deus (2023). This final chapter chronicles humanity’s near-extinction after a nuclear apocalypse, their desperate escape into space, and the colonization of a new planet—all told through nine tracks of merciless brutality.

Survival Protocol Tracklist:
- Existence Erased
- Trapped in Darkness
- Throne of Bones
- Apex Predator
- Baptized in Blood
- Cult of the Green
- Sacrificial Slaughter
- The Survival Protocol

Formed in 1999 by Lukas Swiaczny, STILLBIRTH has spent over two decades redefining the boundaries of slam, death metal, and grindcore with their unique blend of filthy grooves, blast-beat chaos, and tongue-in-cheek party attitude. From their cult debut Happy Stillbirth Party to international tours with KATAKLYSM and FLESHGOD APOCALYPSE, to crushing festival appearances at Summer Breeze and Party.San, the band has remained an unrelenting force in the extreme metal underground.
With Survival Protocol, their ninth studio album, STILLBIRTH look to deliver their most refined yet devastating work to date: a party at the edge of the apocalypse.
