Czech black metal band Bran has shared a new track, "Smuteční průvod", the second revealed from its debut album, Odcházení, set for release on 31 October via Signal Rex on CD format; the vinyl version will follow later this year. Listen to Bran's "Smuteční průvod" in the player below.
One of the most exceptionally accomplished new hordes Signal Rex has come across in recent memory, Bohemia's Bran is a power-trio of ancient black metal might and majesty. To be sure, they exhibit the splendorous, spellbinding riff-sorcery so endemic to their country's black metal idiom, but instead of hypnotizing monochromatism, Bran's epic constructions are unfolding, always blossoming with a strict sense of narrative flow, surprising and engaging at every turn. Bran's Odcházení debut is a march across rarefied lands, for not only does it retain palatably clear production, rendering its ruminations in its most powerful state, but there's a pronounced grounding in actual metal here - but thankfully, without any goofy party posturing or "metal brotherhood" bollocks. No, this is the sound of swords sharpened and chainmail donned, grim resolve as the battle approaches; Bran sees the struggle ahead, and they've created the bloodily majestic / majestically bloody map for it.
