Vrtra, the mysterious blackened death/doom behemots from Sacramento (USA), will release on 2nd September their colossal debut album entitled My Bones Hold A Stillness. Album will be released through San Francisco Bay Area darkness-obsessed DIY indie label Sentient Ruin Laboratories.
Vrtra forge colossal songs of unimaginable darkness and of suffocating intensity. Their hell-spawned music is a nightmarish and horrific kaleidoscope of sound that seamlessly brings together the brooding wretchedness of black metal bands like Deathspell Omega, Dragged Into Sunlight, and Blut Aus Nord, the cavernous and heathen below of the blackest and most abstract death metal as seen in behemoths like Dead Congregation and Diocletian, and the abysmal moods of atmospheric doom and black metal that come straight from the teachings of bands like Neurosis, Disembowelment, Winter, Unearthly Trance, and Altar Of Plagues. The end result comes to life in the form of massive and swirling compositions of levitating dark matter that devour the listener in a firestorm of boundless and foreboding sonic magnificence.
My Bones Hold A Stillness is comprised of three colossal movements of oozing negativity for a total of over thirty minutes of completely abhorrent blackened death-doom chaos, Vrtra have crated an opera of abysmal imagination and of fathomless destructiveness. The album was recorded at Earthtone Studios in Sacramento, CA by Pat Hills, mixed at Earhammer Studios in Oakland, CA by Greg Wilkinson, mastered at Audiosiege in Portland, OR by Brad Boatright, and features beautiful artwork layout crafted for the band by View From The Coffin. The track named "The Cold Suffocating Dark Goes On Forever" can be heard in the player below. Link
