Background information about 'Death Chants Echo From Aphotic Void'

After a self-titled EP, this is the first album from the Germans from Zwickauand it's absolutely crushing.Obsidian Scapes are the embodied nightmare - a deathly veil of cascading riffs, raining down like the lethal erosion of cosmic worlds. Layered with relentless, thunderous drums and ghostly dirges, their music summons visions of a dying universe.Their sounds crawl like molten madness into the depths of the mind, painting aphotic images of shadowy, chthonic cathedrals and titanic monoliths rising against a crumbling horizon. Despair and anguish permeate every note - dirges for a world drowning in the abyss of decay and tributes to powers lurking beyond human comprehension.52 minutes of pure DOOM!- and man, what a journey it is.Mixed and mastered by Thomas Taube at FiveLake Tonstudio, this album delivers exactly what the band promises. From the crushing opener "The Pettiness Of Life" to the epic closing track "Trapped In Equilibrium", every single moment on this record feels like you're being dragged through the darkest corners of existence. The production is massive yet allows every haunting detail to shine through the apocalyptic soundscape.
