Today, Shadow
Records (distributed & marketed by Regain Records) announces June
30th as the international release date for the highly anticipated
self-titled debut mini-album from the
pan-international Eschatology on CD and cassette tape formats.
The vinyl version will follow later this year.
Featuring the members J.K. (Craft) and B.L. (Mordbrand, God Macabre [live])
both on guitar & bass and M.S. (Medico Peste, Over the Voids, Mgła [live])
on vocals & drums, Eschatology indeed carry high expectations for
a brand-new entity. The prime directive is raw, no-frills black metal, and the
band rise to the occasion across the four-song/27-minute Eschatology. It
would be reasonable (and at least halfway accurate) to characterize
this Eschatology as a sonic summation of the members' other ongoing
bands, but on evidence of their debut mini-album, this entity are striving
toward a parallel realm of experience where shards of old & archaic black
metal are re-arranged in darker and more dazzling shapes. Their songs are stout
yet swirling, pounding with presence but fully enraptured within the moment,
hooks mined and then malformed, and the overall attack retaining the requisite
rawness and yet never hiding behind it. No, Eschatology absolutely
CONFRONTS the listener with its world-eating ways, and then proceeds to devour
that listener whole...as in, a black hole.
No niches, no capes, no fun: This is Eschatology. The past and present are
on fire, and those flames are coming for you.
Engulf thyself in those flames with the brand-new track "Cataclysm
I" HERE at Regain Records' official
YouTube channel. Preorder info can be found HERE at Regain Records' Bandcamp.
Cover and tracklisting are as follows:
