British epic doom metallers Godthrymm have dropped yet another track, 'Devils', off their upcoming sophomore album Distortions, set for release on August 18th via Profound Lore Records. Watch the music video below.
Directed and edited by Ash Pears.
"I absolutely wanted to create a much more layered and complex arrangement in the sound," notes Hamish Glencross (guitars, vocals). “Totally amping up the contrasts to the extreme — the light shines brighter, and the darker depths are vast trenches. There is a lot more harmony and melancholy for much of it, but also some slab-heavy riffing, too. We wanted a total progression in the production and more class and clarity in the sound, as opposed to Reflections, which could get quite dense in tone.
"The songwriting for Distortions began during the first lockdown,” Glencross adds. "That inspired me to start writing and recording at home, and that structure helped define how we would ultimately write the album. It was very much isolated for the most part, though. I would write and record the first arrangement of a song and then send it through to the others, who would record their parts and send them back. Then, it would be a case of refining and rewriting as inspired by the contributions of everyone. Only one song, ‘Devils,’ was written in the rehearsal room before the rest of the album."
The band features members once involved in My Dying Bride, Anathema, Vallenfyre, and Solstice.
