France-based blackened doom industrialists Wolok have remodeled into its most potent type on new album, The Bilious Hues Of Gloom. Whereas earlier albums–Fading Mirth & Dry Heaves and Caput Mortuum–touched on the eccentricities of black steel’s outer rim, the group’s newest pulls in from area and posits its victims useless heart of post-apocalyptic inside cities. There’s no gentle, no hope, all corroding, corrupting, and decaying in actual time.
A lot of The Bilious Hues Of Gloom is constructed upon the foundations of avant-garde, predominantly French black steel. The wisps of Deathspell Omega, Blut Aus Nord, and Blacklodge are discovered coursing by means of Wolok’s veins, however the principle tendrils of desolation are tougher to pin down. Much less of a sound, tracks like “The Slough Of Despond,” “Yellow Bile,” and “Downfallen” are extra of a vibe, baleful, chilly, stark, and violent. To wit, the horrible trio chargeable for such metallic entropy are merely known as L. (nausea, heaves, vomit), C. (maestro, emetic tempo), and E. (conception, strings, cacophony).
“After two years of chaotic gestation, we’re proud to unveil the total stream of our new album, The Bilious Hues Of Gloom. It was recorded in bizarre circumstances and spirituous solitude throughout these sick lockdown intervals… therefore the fucked-up tunes. As soon as once more, we might catch our followers off guard as this file is kind of totally different from what we used to supply prior to now. We tried to discover numerous sides of black/doom/punk extemporizations, leading to manic sounds, dissonance and bilious thematics. We’re conscious that our music doesn’t attraction to untrained brains and we want to sincerely pay tribute to Brucia Information, who dared to launch that tormenting oddity.”
Wallow in Wolok’s crushing scorn… There isn’t a escape.
