ROTHADAS Töviskert... a kísértés örök érzete... lidércharang LP BLACK , PRE-ORDER [VINYL 12"]

Following from their 2019 demo and 2021 debut LP, Hungarian death-doom masters Rothadas are back with their spectral sophomore album…

Immediately tendrils of decrepit and morbid death metal will pull you into the abyssal atmospherics the band so vibrantly conjure from the depths. Sepulchral guitars and reverberate drums contort into a monstrosity of festering evil while the macabre vocals permeate and resonate through the crushing mix. Everything constantly moving, shifting, into darker realms; you will be constantly thrown into new realms of horror with each passing moment. From their blasting cacophonies of rotten splendour to the eldritch doom that fills the air with anguish, each second has purpose in painting a picture of terror and charnel mystery in this superb follow-up to their impressive debut album.

Still lost in the abyss? Good. The darkness may feel like you are drowning, inhaling putrescent mass with each attempt to breathe but that is just the effect such potently devastating music has. There is plenty of memorability in the groove-ridden tracks while not just stagnating on a dull riff for the whole record. Thankfully Rothadas have an endless arsenal of varied ideas that each exude total malice and visceral aggression. Stomping your skull into shards, blistering your flesh or simply holding you in bewilderment with their atmospheric prowess, you will not waste a second listening to this absolute behemoth of death metal mastery and if you survive I am sure you will come back for more…
