Sodomic Baptism - Contra Christum - COMPACT DISCS [CD]

SODOMISERY are spinning a dark lyrical yarn about mental illness in society, religion and the struggle of the individual on their sophomore full-length InchMazzaroth. The Swedish melodic death four-piece are underlining their loosely conceptual approach with a remarkable musical evolution that expands their original sound based on the power and precision of death metal with the frenzied and cold aggression of black metal. SODOMISERY have added a layer of dramatic depth by including keyboards, which is hardly surprising as the Swedes count DIMMU BORGIR, CRADLE OF FILTH, and CHILDREN OF BODOM among their major sources of inspiration. SODOMISERY were born out of a studio project originally envisioned by Stockholm based guitarist Harris Sopovic in 2015, who enlisted the help of NETHERBIRD frontman Johan Fridell, bass player Niklas Sandin (KATATONIA, LIK) and drummer Pär Johansson, who is best known for his work with CRAFT and DIABOLICAL. This resulted in the eponymous 3-track EP InchSodomiseryInch which was digitally released in 2017. When the EP was heaped with massive praise, Sopovic recruited new members and decided to continue the band under the name SODOMISERY. Their debut album InchThe Great DemiseInch (2020) can be viewed as a deliberate statement of intent, not to blindly follow in the giant but also somewhat worn out footprints of the legendary Stockholm death metal scene. Instead, these Swedish newcomers favoured a more melodic and versatile approach. In the period from their inception to the forthcoming second album, SODOMISERY have progressed by leaps and bounds and InchMazzarothInch is the audible proof of this bold statement! Album Tracks 1.

Louisiana group Acid Bath achieved a good deal of notoriety in the nineties for their musical ability of blending extreme grindcore-influenced sludge metal and death growls with a mixture of melancholic Goth-style vocals, spoken word, and acoustic guitar passages. Their combination of stoner and doom metal roots with influences from hardcore, black metal and blues-rock created a unique sound that influences many bands today.
