MALEDICTIS - Releases New Single In Two Versions

The USA based gothic chamber metal project Maledictis unveiled their latest single "Breathing In Vain". Featuring both a full version and an instrumental version, this unique undertaking centres around an often unappreciated and overlooked instrument, the bassoon. In a world of shredding guitars and blast beats, Maledictis mastermind Johnny Marszalkowski approached Christina Feigel Carrett about writing a song for her to play that would center itself around a bassoon melody. After the loss of his mother, the mood of the track shifted dramatically and became a contrast of major and minor highs and lows.

"Breathing In Vain" is an enchanting experience, delving into the powerful dynamics of orchestral instruments and adding a distinctive twist through unconventional recording techniques. It's a thrilling celebration of heavy music with a delightfully gothic focus. Maledictis is an unusual take on gothic rock, combining melodic vocals, orchestral instruments, and heavy guitars and drums. Like a reimagined secular requiem, it offers hints of sacred influence, giving it a truly unique sound. Check out both versions right below. Link
