WORM OUROBOROS Complete Work On New Album, New Track Posted
Dark ethereal doom alchemists WORM OUROBOROS have completed work on their third LP “What Graceless Dawn” which will see release on Dec 2, 2016 on CD/Digital with the limited vinyl edition to follow just after.
With their third LP Oakland’s WORM OUROBOROS have brought into existence their deepest and most moving work yet. The follow-up to 2012’s “Come The Thaw” the band’s sophomore release, the trio of bassist/vocalist Lorraine Rath (ex-The Gault/Amber Asylum), guitarist/vocalist Jessica Way (Barren Harvest), and drummer Aesop Dekker (Vhol, Extremity, Khorada, ex-Agalloch/Ludicra) have taken the WORM OUROBOROS sound to a new level of sophistication through their amalgam of morose 4AD-esque doom, death rock, dark ambient, and enchanting chamber music. Through obsessive bass lines, ambient guitar movements, layers and overtones, the alluring vocal intertwining between Rath and Way, along with Dekker’s subtle yet procession-like percussion parts “What Graceless Dawn” is a sonic vision of tragedy and despair, one of the saddest, crippling, and gut-wrenching releases in the realm of heavy, dark, introspective music to be released this year.
Recorded and mixed at Earhammer Studios by Greg Wilkinson and featuring artwork by bassist/vocalist Lorraine Rath, track listing for “What Graceless Dawn” goes as follows:
- Day
- Broken Movements
- Suffering Tree
- Ribbon Of Shadow
- (Was It) The Cruelest Thing
