Oha Cade (composer) comment:

"Tower is, like our debut in 2019, a remote online production. Several musicians who featured on the 2019 album have returned, but we're also introducing new guests. Vocal-wise, on the returning side we have the incredible talents of Hadi Kiani (Gereh, The Frame, Deaton LeMay Project) and Angel Wolf-Black (Goditha, Alexandra Zerner, Vivaldi Metal Project), who reprise their roles as Hessabi and Hypatia. Our new guest is Joshua Morse from the band The Doubted, who appears as the new character Morbus, and delivers Valcata's first ever harsh vocals.

Drummer Jonas Schütz (Sacrosanct, Sapiency, Eraserhead, Diësis, Condemned to Dream, First Encounter, Oceanrise) returns again to grace us with his hammer-hearted rhythms. Then we have three new maestros — João Miguel (Enblood, Tokyo Wanderer) on guitars, Chris Kollias (SL Theory, Serenity Broken, Persona Non Grata) on bass, and Nathaniel Wolkstein (Just Nathaniel, Gravity the Architect, Imagine the Moon) on strings — all of whom elevated this music with their creativity and unique contributions.

Last but certainly not least, this track was mixed and mastered by the legendary producer Jacob Hansen, who has brought to life the music of many bands that influenced us such as Volbeat, Amaranthe, Fleshgod Apocalypse, and Delain.

The artwork was done by Joshua McQuary (McMonster), who creates stunning watercolors. His style perfectly captures the song's atmosphere.

Since our debut in October 2019, I've been feverishly working on new music. While my ultimate goal is to create another full-length album, some things just can't wait. When you hear this song and the lyrical themes, you'll see why."

Fourth album of the Mexican Heavy doom band Consolamentum out now

We are very proud to announce the fourth album of the Mexican Heavy doom band Consolamentum, titled "Ophitas" that will be released on October 25th for #defoxrecords #invinciblerecords The mastermind Martin Martinez aka @Martin Xipe Totec (Xipe Totec Oficial , Yatrogeny, Miquian) gives us a journey that challenges conventional rock, eleven songs that sound like a perfect mix of Black Sabbath, Candlemass, Cathedral, Altar Of Oblivion, with tribal, transcendental sounds and references to pre-Hispanic culture, a one of a kind band, extraordinary, fascinating, surprising! Doom Stoner Metal based on ancient Gnostic heresies; and on this occasion, overtones of Luciferianism. The mysterious sound that comes from the transverse flute; the organ, the bells and the ecclesiastical choirs in Latin can be fused with various voice styles. Maybe you want to put on your “doomer hood” and listen to the grief… - Martin Martinez: Guitars, Drums, Transverse flute, Vocals, organ, piano, Mix at ...
