Today, Chaos Records
announces February 10th, 2023 as the international release date for Cadaver Shrine's highly anticipated
debut album, Benighted Desecration, on CD
format.
Cadaver Shrine is the work
of Maurice de Jong, insanely prolific mainman of Gnaw Their Tongues, De Magia
Veterum, Cloak of Altering, Hagetisse, Golden Ashes, and countless others. Chaos has recently worked with
de Jong's doom-death band The Sombre on
two albums, and now turn their attention to another deathly entity of his: Cadaver Shrine. Born out of the
love for ancient Metal of Death as well as doom, Cadaver Shrine are indeed
putrefied, reeking of the same eternal rot of classic Bolt Thrower, Autopsy,
and other more underground-entrenched entities.
Having released a two-song digital demo during October 2022, Cadaver Shrine rises from
the rotting soil with their debut album, Benighted
Desecration. Hulking and unremittingly heavy, Benighted Desecration rolls
forward with the ominous intent of a tank; riffs crush bones, and the eerie
twist of melody coursing through them adds an exquisite touch of doom. But,
like The Sombre's iteration of
doom-death is a twisted one, so is Cadaver Shrine's
death metal: bouts of bestial speed crop up, sometimes jarringly/unsettlingly,
and many moments of deathcrush are held longer for maximum hypnotic effect.
However, the all-encompassing atmosphere of the album is one of putridity, its
production tar-thick and sweltering.
Maniacs for old-school death metal and doomed death as well as modern
practitioners of such like Spectral Voice, Grave Upheaval, and Encoffination
are hereby commanded to enter Cadaver Shrine's Benighted Desecration.
