Greetings, Decibel readers!
It’s raining as I write this text. The truth is, it’s principally been raining right here all week, making the music on this week’s version notably becoming. Quite a lot of the albums right here can be very pleasing to listeners on the lookout for heavy, darkish, atmospheric metallic of 1 form or one other. And there’s a brand new Candlemass launch as properly. It’s all one large vibe because the cool children prefer to say.
Take pleasure in-

Candlemass – Black Star
I’m undecided there’s any band that higher embodies the perfect of getting older gracefully than Candlemass. Sweden’s doom-metal elder statesmen have returned as soon as once more to grace us with their presence, this time with two new tracks and two very becoming covers. It takes a sure degree of legitimacy to cowl Black Sabbath, however Candlemass has the strongest declare of anybody round.

Escarnium – Inexorable Entropy
Darkish, cavernous loss of life metallic from Brazil. Being that that is the band’s fourth album and I’d by no means heard of them earlier than, Escarnium should be certainly one of loss of life metallic’s best-kept secrets and techniques for the time being. If you happen to like your loss of life metallic with an ominous, virtually orchestral power (like I do), then you might want to get up-to-speed on this band.

Jade – Mysteries of a Flowery Dream
Oh, and also you’d most likely actually like this too, then. Jade has an attention-grabbing tackle atmospheric blackened loss of life metallic in how they incorporate clear vocals. It’s a deeply thought-provoking and expansive sound that appears like a nightmare, however one which makes the dreamer replicate: “Effectively, that is actually scary, but in addition fascinating!” And then you definitely scream.

Skaphos – Cult of Uzura
That is the one sort of metallic I need to hear that entails sea monsters. Skaphos has a agency grasp of tune composition that offers the music a strong affect whereas offering the listener with wealthy layers of drama and disaster. Did I point out sea monsters?
