About this product
The journey of Spirit Adrift has come full circle. With their sixth album in a decade, mastermind Nathan Garrett is ready to unleash the band's final chapter. Infinite Illumination, the Spirit Adrift swansong, is a return to the wellspring that first inspired it all and testament to a band that in the last ten years has crafted an impeccable signature thoroughly their own, molded from the elemental matter of more than a half century of heavy metal exaltation. Infinite Illumination has a directness to it, a sense of urgency and raw intensity. The songs feel inevitable, like they had to be driven out from deep within during a time of great upheaval. The fatalistic InchBorn in a Bad WayInch summons a vengeful Inchbroken relic from another ageInch that must Inchlive again and make them payInch via Garrett's swaggering snarl, while InchWhite DeathInch impugns InchGod shined on a chosen few, we must kill the rest of youInch. These songs have a palpable sense of malaise both spiritual and terrestrial, personal and universal, inflicted via crushing traditional doom riffs, thunderous mid-tempo marches and Garrett's impassioned vocal delivery. Long after the band is gone fans will continue to discover the Spirit Adrift catalog and witness the breadth of greatness they delivered in just a decade's time. Every melodic, epic and emotionally charged thread that defines the band's legacy honors the animating force behind pure creative ambition. And at it's core Infinite Illumination carries both the weight of conclusion and the troubling realization that it is rarely painless to say farewell.

Spirit Adrift - Ghost At The Gallows [VINYL LP] With Booklet date 08/18/2023
From it's scorching climate to it's bizarre news headlines, it would be no understatement to describe Florida as an extreme State. Once even known as the death metal capital of the world, Tampa Florida would eventually give birth to the extreme metallers Immanifest in 2008. Invoking and combining their Floridian death metal roots with Nordic spirit, the band would go on to share the stage with International acts such as DEICIDE, KAMELOT, TYR, KORPIKLAANI and KULT OV AZAZEL. Their QLIPHOTIC EP, officially released in the summer of 2010 would also go on to win praise from members of OLD MAN'S CHILD, BORKNAGAR, DEICIDE, KAMELOT and MALEVOLENT CREATION. While taking influence from many extreme metal subgenres, the band's sound could perhaps best be described as symphonic black / death metal. Now, after finally awakening from hypersleep, the sextet have joined forces with THE ARTISAN ERA for the next chapter
The uncompromising fusion of classic death metal and melody, as well as powerful riffs reminiscent of the old Gothenburg school, meet rousing grooves that invite you to bang your head. Imagine At the Gates, Dark Tranquillity, Morbid Angel, Obituary, Death and Carcass joining forces - fast, melodic, precise and deadly at the same time! Nevertheless, Helldrifter maintain a very good balance between heaviness and melody, as well as speed and groove. All songs convince with variety and skillfully chosen compositions. In parts, InchHelldrifter - Shell Of InexsistenceInch is reminiscent of classics like Death's Symbolic or The Sound of Perseverance - but fresh and not a dusty copy! Lyrically, InchShell Of Inex sistenceInch deals with dark and existentially threatening themes From the nuclear end of mankind, to the psychoanalysis of the human soul, to socially critical topics, such as wars and suicide. InchShell of InexistenceInch is not only a powerful musical statement, but also an intense lyrical work that delves deep into the abysses of the psyche and society.InchShell Of InexsistenceInch was recorded, produced and mixed under the direction of Roland Böffgen and Helldrifter at Hard Drive Sound Studios in Stuttgart. The guitar and bass tracks were recorded under the direction of Vasilis Monopoulos in the band's own studios. The final Polish and mastering was carried out by Kai Stahlenberg at Kohlekeller Studio in Seeheim-Jugenheim. Giannis Nakos (Remedy Design), who has already created the artwork for Suffocation, Morbid Angel, Cryptopsy and The Crown, among others, was commissioned with the visual realization. InchShell of InexistenceInch is a powerful statement in death metal that will captivate fans of the genre just as much as newcomers!
