Wormholedeath is proud to announce the signing of German extreme metal band Aegror, marking the upcoming re-issue of their critically acclaimed album Reign of Disease, due January 8th, 2027.

Originally released independently in 2025 following an eight-year hiatus, Reign of Disease was intended to be Aegror’s final statement. Instead, the album’s overwhelming international critical response, chart placements, and fan reception transformed a planned farewell into a major career rebirth.

Official Band Statement:
“We are extremely proud to announce that Aegror has signed with Wormholedeath Records. After the unexpected success of Reign of Disease and everything that followed, this feels like another major turning point in our journey.

What started as an album we believed might be our final statement has literally brought Aegror back from the dead. The Plaguebreeder clearly wasn't finished with us — and now the story continues on a much larger scale.
Joining forces with Wormholedeath Records is an exciting step forward. Their international reach, experience, and passion for extreme music make them the perfect partner to help bring Aegror and the Universe of the Plaguebreeder to an even wider audience.

We are grateful for everyone who believed in us, supported Reign of Disease, and helped keep Aegror alive during the years of silence. This is not the end of the story. It is the beginning of a new chapter.
The Plaguebreeder walks among us. And Aegror is back.” — Aegror

Reign of Disease

Rooted in Aegror's long-running Plaguebreeder Universe, Reign of Disease tells the story of an interdimensional entity whose influence spreads through disease, fear, and psychological decay. Rather than presenting horror as simple fantasy, the album explores how control, paranoia, and the collapse of human systems can transform both individuals and societies, weaving narrative and atmosphere into a world where corruption is rooted as much in the human mind as in the body.

Musically, the album expands Aegror's sound beyond the boundaries of traditional extreme metal. Relentless aggression collides with haunting melodies, progressive songwriting, and expansive atmospheric passages; crushing riffs and ferocious blast beats are balanced by moments of melancholy and tension, allowing the record to move between overwhelming violence and eerie introspection without losing its identity. Each song serves the larger narrative while standing on its own as a carefully constructed piece of extreme metal.

About Aegror / Universe of the Plaguebreeder

Aegror is an extreme metal band from Kerken, Germany, founded in 2009.
The name is derived from the Latin word for “disease.”
Aegror is a conceptual artistic project combining music, storytelling, and visual identity into a dark, immersive universe.

Their sound blends atmospheric black metal with progressive and melodic elements, exploring themes of disease, psychological extremities, and real-world crises. At the center of this concept stands the Plaguebreeder — an interdimensional entity attempting to enter the human world, brought to life both in the lyrics and on stage, turning live performances into intense, narrative-driven experiences.
Since their debut, De Morbis (2010), Aegror has continuously evolved its sound and storytelling. Forgotten Tales (2013) and Dead Man’s Diary (2017) further refined their progressive direction and conceptual depth.

After lineup changes, founding vocalist Narthaas and guitarist Abyssus continued as the band’s creative core. Their third studio album, Reign of Disease, marks a new milestone. The album received critical acclaim and achieved international chart placements, highlighting the band’s growing presence beyond the European underground. Aegror continues to push its vision forward.
