Today, Purity Through Fire announces October 31st as the international release date for Tårfödd's highly anticipated fourth album, Lidande, on CD format.
Since their formation in 2022, Sweden's Tårfödd have become a prolific force in the DSBM scene. With five full-lengths to date as well as nine singles, two EPs, and a couple collaborative records, mainman Simon Lindgren is a man possessed: supreme melancholy, bittersweet majesty, Technicolor textures, and soul-draining emotion have all become his stock in trade. And while it's not often that Purity Through Fire steps into depressive black metal waters, the label presently makes an exception for Tårfödd's Lidande.
Originally released digitally earlier this year and later followed by fifth album Efterlämnade i sorg, Lidande is as good of a place as any to begin experiencing Tårfödd. Totaling 11 tracks across 56 minutes, the album is generous in its immersion. Songs are thusly varied in composition and dynamics, but feel unified as a whole. Lindgren is skilled at layering each of those compositions with cold riffing, transcendent leads, heartbroken piano, and an almost-effortless shifting of tempo - furiously fast, sloggingly slow, and everything in between - all encased in a polished production that allows every forlorn note to pierce the soul in 3D. Drown in those depressive waters with Tårfödd's Lidande!
