Descent Into Madness is the third EP by American deathcore band Enterprise Earth, released independently on January 30, 2025. It is the band's first release to be released independently.[1] It is also the band's first release to feature drummer Aron Hetsko who joined the band in August 2024, replacing Brandon Zackey who left to join Whitechapel.[2]
While on this EP the band still mixes deathcore with thrash, djent, and melodic death metal, it pursued a more extreme style with less of those influences.[3][4] The band jettisoned most of the soaring melodies and sung vocals, opting instead for "sheer brutality".[4]
Dan Southall of Hot Metal Magazine said of the recording that "this recording doesn’t set out to create something new or fresh, but it does serve as a new beginning of sorts for the band."[6] He commented that his music taste does include some deathcore, and "sometimes you have to let go of the elitist outlook and just have a moshing good time."[6] Florian Schaffer of Vampster said that for this recording, the band concocted a more cohesive and uncompromising sound compared to prior releases.[3] Hellbiter of Metallerium rated the EP eight-point-five out of ten, summarizing it as "deathcore with everything necessary for one who enters."[5] Nicholas Hayley of Boolin Tunes rated the EP eight out of ten, stating "By and large, it proved difficult for me to find anything negative to say about this one."[4]
