Dirty Shrines - Digital Ego - VINYL LP

Purity Ring - Shrines [VINYL LP] date 07/24/2012

At long last the successor to 2017's Deliverance From The Godless Void has been unconfined from the clandestine vaults of Dark Descent Records. Aptly titled Fires Of The Dying World, Finland's Desolate Shrine delivers forty-six minutes of their unique death metal possession. The masterful craftsmanship on this fifth album is unmistakable-a true portrait of a band at their absolute peak. Yet be forewarned before indulging from the poison chalice of Fires Of The Dying World, for it ensnares it's victims in an inescapable maelstrom of death and futility. Absolute surrender is the recommended response, as one descends into a claustrophobic trance that erases the world around and reaches into one's very soul. Upon awakening... nothing will be quite the same again... Let the fires burn.

Limited red colored vinyl LP pressing. Cleveland quintet Nine Shrines arose in 2014 from the ashes of an aggressive 00's Ohio band pedigree drummer Andrew Wetzel (Attack Attack!), bassist Devon Voisine and lead guitarist Andrew Baylis, (Life on Repeat), rhythm guitarist Even McKeever (Downplay), and singer Chris Parketny (Strangers to Wolves). Their new album, Retribution Therapy, sees the band truly gel as one powerful unit, blending the most extreme elements of active-rock/metal-core with well-crafted, melodic songwriting. Sharing the stage with Volbeat, Halestorm, Chimaira, Shinedown, All That Remains, and Nonpoint made waves nationwide. It's all given rise to the intensity of Retribution Therapy produced by Dan Korneff (My Chemical Romance, I Prevail, Pierce The Veil, Papa Roach). Recommended for fans of 10 Years, Parkway Drive, Bullet For My Valentine and Architects.
