Gravity Well "Delirium" Single Review




     
 Female Fronted Gravity Well are a Stoner Rock/Psychedelic Doom Quartet based in Northern Ireland,they formed around 2019 and have been honing their craft and sound since,their excellent debut album Earthbound showed signs of the true essences and capability of what this band can reach,with their new single Delirium they've really advanced their sound to a whole new level and should be a taster of what's to come.

 



   As Soon as that first note hits you know you're about to be taken on some sort of Psychedelic trip into the stratosphere, the repitive Guitar riff ,fuzzed out Bass and tribal rhythms of the drums slowly puts you into a trance while the ethereal and haunting vocals make you fell like you're floating through a dream-like sequences that you never want to end,if this really is a taste of what Gravity Well are brewing up for us,then we're in for a really special treat,definitely keep a close watch on these in 2024

RATING:8.5/10

Chambercraft "Delirium" Demo Review



     After an almost 20 year hiatus the absolutely brilliant Black Metal project Chambercraft has come back from the deepest darkest abyss to unleash some atmospheric misanthropic anthems in the meantime for the first time ever the 2004 demo Delrium is available online for your listen displeasure lets dissect this stellar piece of art.


     Opening track Full Moon Suicide has a very thrashy aura to it a full on face melting riff fest with grim and nasty vocals ,bit like a mix of Slayer and early Immortal, the proper way to unleash this quality release, The atmosphere gets a little more darker with the Doom Laden and Misanthropic Escapades of Poisoned and Bleeding To Death there's nice subtle Darkthrone-espue elements running thoughout this song,you're given the feeling the further into the track that a slow painful ,and torturous death is been endured, closing track The Throne Room pushes the atmospheric and misanthropic elements into a darker place ,this is my favourite track on the EP and reminds me of early Xasthur and Burzum,there's an eerily frosty aura to this track like you're lost in the wilderness in the depths of an icy and snowbound forest.




  Twenty years later and this EP still sounds extremely relevant in todays realms of Black Metal,you can say it's all about nostalgia,maybe that's true but there's a new generation of bands and artist delving into the true essence of what Balck Metal has always been about,the search for individuality and spirituality,i look forward what Chambercraft have in store for us in 2024.
