pinkytheent Color me mycosified! Cavern Deep deliver another highly immersive cavernous slab of their subterranean tunes, very much in the spirit and quality of the first. Their wavering melodies and airy passages paired with crushing chord progressions carrying crushing tones really hit hard: excellently weird songwriting. Rather than feeling like a gimmick, they conjure an atmosphere that is genuinely strange and inhuman, with shades of science fiction and body horror, like luminescent fungi in the dark. Favorite track: Breach.

The4LetterNerd I would agree with Pumpkin Thierry that we're seeing some genre-defining stuff here, with Deep Metal being established as a more ponderously thematic but still crushing cousin to Doom. Cavern Deep are on the forefront alongside bands like Oceanlord and Vitskär Süden, who are exploring their own themes of eldritch watery depths and cosmic horror fantasy. Cheers for the free codes, dudes! Favorite track: Skeletal Wastes (feat. Johannes Behndig).

Breach 07:22
From the tongue of a dying usurper Veins of earth like dirty water Reshaping fibers of existence Ripping the veil Longe gone are the earthly cathedrals Mind is blank and heart is void Breach... Torn apart and re-assembled Some machines works as intended Roaring pain and deafening silence A dormant being Longe gone are the earthly cathedrals Mind is blank and heart is void Breach... Life Ending Death Beginnings Growth Twitching Life
2.
Behold It is rising The exception Majestic life In the cradle of stillborns Breathing skinless Incomplete Towering Beautiful Raging Tearing all apart The last unnatural womb Raging now The last unnatural womb I'm raging now If you follow Drawn to the east, chest is heaving Unseeing eyes adjusting Tongue of ancients, from within Festering birthplace Left Behind Discarded The compass, primal code Wanting Wanting Out of the basin Raging now I'm Raging now Step by step through this crumbling canyon As the pattern unfolds Out of the basin Starts to burn as it clings to the marrow Mending this shell as I go Out of the basin
3.
Out of the cradle, into a cold embrace A kingdom of ashes, a throne turned to dust State of oblivion, lingering on A view from the highground Gaze upon these barren lands Searching the path to carry on Spirals has torn the sky Unfruitful soil Neither man nor wilder beast To be seen Out of the cradle, into a cold embrace A kingdom of ashes, a throne turned to dust State of oblivion, lingering on The city a carcass, The winds blowing foul Through the domes, A withering graveyard Littered with bones, On and on The tragic unfolds
4.
The low light of infested veins Pushing me on with mysterious purpose Ancient theatre Sceneries of war Behemoths withered Climb the mountains made of spines Machinery of endless sleep Dying light, the edge of the horizon Yearning to be seen Hollow the mind The ever mourning vessel Attached to the orb Making my way through the maze of wasted giants Killing time Climb the mountains made of spines Machinery of endless sleep Dying light, the edge of the horizon Yearning to be seen

Sea of Rust 07:06
This is ground Zero The tears of millions Unheaded warning Corroded waters Tomb of the sunken Blood Red Surface Gate of corruption Floating above There is but one Crossing the ocean In a perfect line Straight to the source I am the voice The devious code Bringer of closure At the sea of rust Rising above ghosts of leviathans Starting to peel like the layers of a bulb Revealing the tainted key to enter the pulse
6.
Bursting out with longing My chest is split wide open Pulled apart to cross the great divide My veins are roads of silver Pathogenic promise Dying heartbeats taint the other side Moving just like clockwork Adapting to the rythm Bodiless I leave the world behind Into starless space Liquid and infectious Lethal and untouchable the mind

about

This is our second album and it continues the journey of the archeologist of our first debut concept album:

1. Breach
The archaeologist is no more. Engulfed.
As the ungodly withering sentinel feasts on his flesh and mind, something is opening. Picked up by a violent current, the bare essence of the man is plunged through the strange spaces in between worlds. It is reshaped. Traveling in its primal form with the monstrous being as a conduit. Its heart is blank. Mind is void.

2. Primordial Basin
She is watching patiently. The engineer. The last of its kind. The theft of this essence from the otherworldy refuge was the final attempt. Embedded in the being below her is the code. Her design. Her revenge. Deep down in the basin, the putrid water stirs as the being breaks free from its membranous nursery. The engineer watches in silent triumph from afar as the being destroys everything in its path in blind newborn rage. Wading through the festering amniotic fluid it is pulled by an inner voice to the east.

3. A World Bereaved
No more memories of its earlier existence than glitching, flickering images. Like waking up from distant clouded nightmares. Skin is thin, sore, still growing as it lumbers through desolate landscapes. No signs of life to be seen. The ground is torn by sickly pulsating spirals, shooting up in the thick clouds above. Passing former displays of architectural grandeur; now caved in like hollow skulls. A sense of purpose is shaping inside as it finds its paths through the wasteland.

4. Skeletal Wastes
Before it, an ancient war ground. It is vast and dreadful to behold. The last big battle of a dying civilization. The last gasping breath. The being makes its way through labyrinths of giant dead abominations and remnants of war machines since long put to sleep. Picking up pace. Slowly burning from inside with an ever-growing sense of meaning. It is the final solution. The retaliation of many. The faint glow in its veins extends to a cord. The hovering placenta is feeding it in a steady rhythm, preparing the being for its passing.

5. Sea of Rust
The Sea. Dead. Acidic. This is ground zero. It knows all. It was here above the greatest of cities they broke through. Drawn by the greed of kings and queens and their ever-growing thirst for the primal energy beyond their realm. It was they who forced the few remaining to take refuge in a distant cold world, destined to wither away in subterranean darkness. Everything is lost. Sunken. All but rust. The engineer gives up a sigh as she from afar witness the being floating above the red watery mass towards the pulsating rift at the horizon. It is starting to shed.

6. The pulse
This is it. The release. The soothing of the inner ache. The organic matter is peeled off layer by layer as the being passes the rift. The glowing orb withers away and sinks into the sea. The pulsating passage lays bare. It is liquid. Lethal. Bodiless. It is ready. They are doomed.
