Spanish melodic doom/death metal outfit Golgotha has unveiled the first single/lyric video, "Gilded Cage", from its forthcoming sixth album, Spreading The Wings Of Hope, set for release on 14 June through Ardua Music on CD and cassette formats, adorned in vivid, compelling artwork.
Richly layered and meticulously crafted, the songs of Spreading The Wings Of Hope deserve the very finest sonic stage on which to work their magic - and the production, mixing and mastering skills of Javier Fernández (Avulsed, Holycide, TodoMal) have given them just that; each note, each word, each drum beat can be relished, appreciated, consumed. Now allied with the renowned label Ardua Music, Golgotha is ready to start a brilliant new chapter in its storied career. When Spreading The Wings Of Hope is unveiled on 14 June, its light will shine like a beacon into every corner of the metal world, and devotees of epic, imaginative doom with the power to touch the sombre heart will be enraptured by its mesmeric charm.
