Grave Lines - Fed Into The Nihilist Engine - COMPACT DISCS [CD]

The second album by London/Brighton heavy contingent follows on from their 2016 debut 'Welcome To Nothing' and sees the band expand their sound across nine weighty, yet darkly melodic tracks. A must listen for fans of all things heavy, however anybody seeking music that delves into the darker and more introspective aspects of the human condition will find much to love within it's expansive tracks. At times quiet and melancholy, at times an oppressive and miserable onslaught of crushing riffs and filth-laden grooves. Made up of Julia Owen, Jake Harding, Oliver Irongiant and Stgrn Matt, Grave Lines are no strangers to the heavy music scene - previous bands include Throne, Sea Bastard, Dead Existence, Casual Nun, Landskap, War Wolf, Dysteria and The Death Letter. Lyrically introspective, dark and challenging, vocalist Jake Harding states InchThe album is an exploration into our relationship with negativity. The Nihilist Engine is symbolic of our greatest flaw and the self-defeating nature of our species. This machine represents both the inner turmoil of the human spirit and our struggle to understand the darkness spreading from external forces. Self-perpetuating and infectious, these feelings contaminate and spread. A relentless machine drawing us in and chewing up our poisoned remainsSide A 1. Failed Skin Side B 2. Shame/Retreat 3.
