Italian blackened gothic doom act Shores Of Null has announced its fourth album, The Loss Of Beauty, to be released on 24 March 2023 via Spikerot Records. The Loss Of Beauty follows the acclaimed Beyond The Shores (On Death And Dying) album, unanimously considered by fans and critics as one of the doom metal gems of recent years. Both albums were recorded between 2019 and early 2020, and although, The Loss Of Beauty was initially conceived as the band's third album, Beyond The Shores took its place as it better reflected the doom and gloom sentiment of the "annus horribilis" 2020.
Across 11 tracks (plus two bonus tracks), Shores Of Null, once again, submerges listeners with tempestuous and turbulent riffs. The band continues to hone its sound and take its melancholic dark metal to new heights by mastering an assorted palette of genres with inbred poignancy. The lyrics celebrate beauty in imperfection and transience; they serve as an invitation to seek beauty in little things, especially those unexpected and ephemeral.
The quintet of Shores Of Null will be releasing singles over the following months to entice listeners further and have plans for a European tour to support the release. The Loss Of Beauty was recorded by Marco "Cinghio" Mastrobuono at Kick Recording Studio (Hour Of Penance, Inno, Fleshgod Apocalypse); cover artwork by Sabrina Caramanico.
The Loss Of Beauty is dark and heavy, tinged with feelings of despair and melancholy - recommended for fans of Amorphis, Enslaved, and Paradise Lost.
The first single will be released on 15 December, while the official album trailer awaits you right below. Link
