SUPERTERRESTRIAL - Announces New Album And Reveals First Details

UK-based mysterious celestial black metallers Superterrestrial are preparing to unleash their third album The Fathomless Decay on 27 January 2023. Joining together the speed and darkness of black metal with ethereal soundscapes, The Fathomless Decay embarks on an immersive voyage into the unknown.

The band comments: "It just seemed right with the style of music we wanted to create. The sense of calmness and wonder suited the ambient synth parts of our music, while the cold, unforgiving void of space suits the bleakness of black metal"

Superterrestrial draw influences from across the black metal genre, including Darkthrone, Wolves In The Throne Room, Make A Change...Kill Yourself, along with soundtrack composers such as John Carpenter. The quartet deliver a sense of grounding through metal instrumentation while venturing into worlds beyond ours through airy synths and ambient textures. "Dark Energy" opens The Fathomless Decay with a compelling introduction to their distinctive style. Exploring the key aspects of Superterrestrial's identity, this track establishes the mood for the album. "Transient Lunar Phenomenon" contrasts speed and rhythmic chord progressions, with a soundtrack fitting for the void. "Periastron" segues through multiple riff-driven sections and haunting expanses of vast electronics while 80s-inspired synth tones bring an eerie air to "Heliacal Rising". Exploding into a heavy assault, demonic harsh vocals emerge out of the dominating gloom. Tracklist and cover artwork are below. More news will follow. Link
