Kolejny numer od SLIDHR

 

As a second evocation from forthcoming album "White Hart!", Ireland's finest SLIDHR present 'What The Gauntlet Bestows'. This perfectly executed new composition convinces with full blown Black Metal fanaticism and carefully interwoven passages of ominous calm. Listen via Bandcamp and the label's YT channel:

SLIDHR is the exultation to a dead realm, itself a spark in a realm of nothingness, so far removed from recurring banality. It is creeping death enveloping the empty body of man, a great plague decimating mortal unity."

Formed in 2005 and hailing from Dublin, Ireland, SLIDHR is an immersive maelstrom of venomously misanthropic Black Metal. The band’s name derives from the Sliðr, a river flowing through Hel, the land of the dead in Norse mythology – a moniker which befits their dark enigmatic power.

Founded as a solo project by artist, tattooist and bassist/guitarist/vocalist Joseph Deegan, since 2013 the band has featured Icelandic drummer Bjarni Einarsson (SINMARA, ALMYRKVI) and more recently bassist Stefan Dietz.

Following the 2006 cassette release of "Demo 1" (Debemur Morti Productions), the band has unleashed two full-length albums – "Deluge" (2013, DMP) and "The Futile Fires Of Man" (2018, Ván Records) – in addition to two EPs and two split releases. The abyssal atmosphere of these records in combination with furiously intense select live performances at festivals such as Inferno, Prague Death Mass, Caledonian Darkness and Ascension has established SLIDHR as a force to be reckoned with.

A highly-anticipated third long player entitled "White Hart!" will be released via DMP at the end of 2023.
