Do not you hate it when bands simply sleepwalk by means of their press pics? Like, it is only a nondescript shot of some folks standing round and obtrusive on the digital camera of their apply area? No blood or bare women or daggers or skulls or capes or candles or spiked gauntlets anyplace? Yeah, me too. Anyway, we have a brand new music from the freaky Miami steel duo Worm.
Early subsequent 12 months, Worm will launch Necropalace, their first album for brand new label house Century Media. We already posted the album’s 12-minute title observe, and now they’ve adopted that single with “Blackheart,” which clocks in at a comparatively digestible eight minutes. This one has some actually fairly gothic doom components. With out even the slightest concern of cheese, Worm construct to cinematic rage-outs. That is the uncommon underground steel music that will’ve made complete sense on the Misplaced Boys soundtrack. This is what singer Phantom Slaughter says about it:
We contemplate this to be a gothic vampire love ballad. Sharing a special type of emotion and colour than the remainder of the report. The lyrics contact on the isolation and loss one feels as a toddler of the night time. Musically, ‘Blackheart’ fuses Avantgarde Music-era Katatonia and their love of Fields Of The Nephilim with icy AOR like FM (UK), Strangeways, and Harem Scarem. We couldn’t go away behind our Floridian heritage, so there are additionally frozen swamp nods to Demise (Symbolic) in addition to Crimson Glory.
Like “Necropalace,” “Blackheart” has a spookily theatrical video from veteran steel director and particular results/make-up artist Norman Cabrera. Test it out under.
Necropalace is out 2/13 on Century Media.
