Czech atmospheric/avant-garde doom metal band Et Moriemur are doing something special on their latest full length, going for a Japanese theme this time around and employing various exotic instruments to achieve that. They manage to create a seamless record of some of the finest and most refreshing music you'll hear in this style. Listen to this fascinating song "Nagoya" below. The album entitled Tamashii No Yama will be released on the 8th of April 2022 via Transcending Obscurity Records.
Et Moriemur set new standards for themselves with their previous Greek-themed album Epigrammata which borrowed elements of death and black metal and flawlessly integrated them into their unique brand of atmospheric doom metal. This time they're exploring Japanese themes and have frankly outdone themselves. It's rare to come across bands that are constantly reinventing themselves without losing their core sound and Et Moriemur are doing just that and taking the sound ahead in ways previously unimagined. An album to be heard from start to finish, it makes you experience various moods and sounds, having employed the services of several musicians in addition to their own, playing traditional instruments such as shakuhachi and others like cello, harp, violin and more. For the next quarter of an hour, you're transported to a different land, imagining a different era, and you remain mesmerized by the seamlessly transitioning music with plenty of variations and fascinating new elements. The blend of genres is immaculate and none of it feels even remotely forced or out of place. Truly, Et Moriemur may have created a new sound which they've only perfected over here. They remain in a league of their own, in competition with only themselves. Link
