Thaetas - Irredeemable Age - COMPACT DISCS [CD]

Aseethe's Throes is a work of corrosive beauty and colossal weight. The trio of guitarist/vocalist Brian Barr, drummer Eric Diercks, and bassist/vocalist Noah Koester craft tectonic slabs of doom through minimalist approaches to composition. Minutely selected textures built on simplistic, repetitive motifs become mountainous. With each cycle of repetition, their towering riffs, bludgeoning drums, and inhuman howls become increasingly hypnotic and reveal subtle intricacies. The recursive nature of their songs coupled with their glacial pacing make masterful use of restraint to create moments of genuine surprise. Throes was recorded at Steve Albinis Chicago studio Electrical Audio by Shane Hochstetler (Jon Mueller, Northless). Aseethe drew from their expertise in utilizing noise and drones to develop a sonic world uniquely their own, dually aesthetic and foreboding. Barr, who composed and arranged the bulk of the music, drew inspiration from his recent solo work live-scoring films, relying on instinct as a compositional tool to interplay with the rigid structures throughout. Aseethe remains one of the most distinctive and relentless forces in heavy music operating today. Through their ability to constantly evolve and incorporate new sounds and disparate influences into their music, they stand at the vanguard of forward thinking bands like labelmates The Body and SUMAC. Throes is Aseethe at their most daring and focused, building monuments of anguish while thrusting into the void.1. Throes2. To Victory3. Suffocating Burden4. No Realm5. Our Worth Is the New Measure

Zemeth is a nostalgic melodic death metal project from Hokkaido that was born to create lyricism, passion, dramatic music, and the best, one-of-a-kind melodies. This is Zemeth's second mini album, which is all melodic death metal, and is now available in a variety of music genres. It is not just a return to the basics, but a fusion of the various musical elements that Zemeth has cultivated so far with melodic death metal. 'LACRIMOSA MORTIS' and 'XENOPHILIA' are Zemeth-esque to the utmost. 'HIBISKUS', a track from the 4th album, has evolved into reggaeton melodic death metal and descends to this world again. 'THE FINAL GENERATION' showcases riff work derived from Gothenburg style with a modern sound. 'EVERGREEN SAGA' is a folkish melodic death metal that incorporates the sound of a hurdy-gurdy. The title track 'ETHEREAL MIRAGE' is a pop melodic death metal fusion of Zemeth's signature melody and symphonic black metal. This is an EP of killer tunes. This work, which holds new possibilities for melodic death metal, will be a stepping stone to Zemeth's next work. The artwork design for this work was done by Yuuki Ribu.Zemeth is a Hokkaido-based nostalgic melodic death metal project born to create lyricism, passion, dramatic music, and the best, one-of-a-kind melodies. It is a one-man metal project by JUNYA, the only member. After releasing their first album 'ROUGE NOIR' in 2017, they continued to works vigorously, and released their fourth album 'MIREN' last year in 2024. Their popularity has now spread overseas, and their unique and one-of-a-kind musicality, which pursues melody with tenacity, is highly praised. They produce a variety of songs, not limited to HR/HM, and have established Zemeth as a genre in itself.
