Number 12

 

 

Number 12

 

We make another jump of forty points from evil sounding Witchthroat Serpent on Number 13 to reach the band and their album on Number 12. Where we find another sound that has that ominous and wicked atmosphere. Another Ripple Music release and another one we mentioned on the HiVe back when it was released. Blood, sweat and intention are vital in music. Many of the albums produced simply wouldn’t work without the band believing in their cause. You couldn’t exhume a riff, grind a groove, or even lay your hands on a microphone to belt out some words without a firm trust in what you were doing. And this band has that and more to spare. The growth displayed when looking back at their debut from 2020, which was already damn impressive, is bordering on the insane. Or as we ended the little write-up back in March: “...On their sophomore album the band already sounds like they have arrived at their destination; and with that knowledge, it’s almost fearsome to think about what they might accomplish next. They might be able to get away with murder by the time we hear that third album…”


On Number 12 we find…

Doom Charts - Best of 2017


Doom Charts

    “What is real? Because unceasingly we are bombarded with pseudo-realities manufactured by very sophisticated people using very sophisticated electronic mechanisms. I do not distrust their motives; I distrust their power. They have a lot of it. And it is an astonishing power: that of creating whole universes, universes of the mind. I ought to know. I do the same thing.” (Philip K. Dick)
