Weekly Release Wednesday (8/24/22)
Sometimes you get your release list compiled early, sometimes you get called to work on something at midnight for six hours and work your normal shift right after too. Either way, I’m making sure you get all the music you need, even if it’s a day late. Anyway, here’s all the shit on the way for the week, so tell us what you’re jamming in the comments below.
Endonomos – Endonomos (Argonauta Records) [Death Doom]
Listen to “Wither and Thrive,” “Atropos”
Death doom with slick modern-sounding production and composition to match is rarer than the birth of a sea turtle, making Endonomos catch my ear immediately. It’s slow and mournful with all the atmospheric trappings one would expect, but the sound is cleaner and clearer than most. It helps maximize the impact of the instrumental work; despite the songs being low and slow, there’s a lot of motion in each section. This kind of sounds like it’ll be one of those doom albums for people who don’t like doom; even if it isn’t, keep an eye out for this if you’re looking for something slower that keeps the music cerebral. 8/26/22 (Spear)
