Dutch black metallers Deathless Void stream the entirety of their debut album, The Voluptuous Fire Of Sin, set for release this Friday, 20 September, via Iron Bonehead Productions.
Hailing from the resurgent Dutch black metal scene, the then-mysterious Deathless Void made its public debut with a self-titled EP in early 2022, released by Iron Bonehead. Across its three-song / 15-minute runtime was a vacuum of violent, post-modern death energy. The band's foundation was undoubtedly black metal but its vision was not blinkered by the past; if anything, the jet stream of crushing chaos across Deathless Void was futuristic, albeit a ruined vision of such.
Reprising two EP tracks, The Voluptuous Fire Of Sin becomes the penultimate first statement from Deathless Void. Much of that foundation is fortunately still in place - palpitating physicality mutated into cold, cutting, gleaming-yet-bloodstained steel - but the now-quartet has excised some of the noisier crags of that EP in favour of a more organic sound field, which exceptionally amplifies the latent night-sky melodicism of their black metal. In terms of that EP, one could point to later Katharsis or Antaeus or especially turn-of-the-millennium Thorns as touchstones; on The Voluptuous Fire Of Sin, there's a palpably late 90s feel in both songwriting and production, such that one could psychically slot the album among the No Fashion Records roster back then. Still, said EP whipped forth its dread and delirium, and Deathless Void duly maximizes that sensation here. The riffs and rhythms may attack in a somewhat familiar manner, but coursing through their bloodstream is a haunting aspect that hovers above and below, each texture daubed in nightmarishly psychedelic colour - all emanating from black.
