Background information über 'Lachrymose Monuments Of Obscuration'

On the precipice of their third decade, Hooded Menace stand not as a bridge but the pillar between two distinct realms of underground metal. Their seventh album "Lachrymose Monuments Of Obscuration" is still rooted in cultish obsession with classic horrors, but these stewards of death-doom remain far from stuck in their ways. The Knights Templar still stand watch over this latest offering, with "Pale Masquerade" summoning film director Amando de Ossorio's flesh-eating muse through a fresh heap of bone-crunching chugs and death growls that reek of the tomb.

While the lasting influence of Candlemass and Paradise Lost hasn't vanished without a ghostly trace, Hooded Menace continue to break the mold with surprising elements. The album hammers home the '80s heavy metal influence that the band rang in on "The Tritonus Bell", with drums snapping into gallops amidst blistering leads that drip with neon atmosphere. What emerges from the double bass swirling beneath lead single "Portrait Without A Face" is the deeply haunting moan of a cello, showcasing the band's willingness to experiment. With "Lachrymose Monuments Of Obscuration", Hooded Menace cast death-doom in a ghostly new light.

For fans of: Paradise Lost, Autopsy, and Mercyful Fate
