Tyranny

Finnish doom metal band Tyranny to release 2nd album 'Aeons in Tectonic Interment' in September

Finnish funeral doom duo, Tyranny — featuring within its ranks current and former members of Corpsessed and Wormphlegm among others — will unleash their first new studio offering in a decade this Fall via Dark Descent Records. Titled 'Aeons in Tectonic Interment', the record offers up five diseased psalms of slow, tortured, epically bowel-rupturing grimness. Composed, performed and tracked by members Matti Mäkelä and Lauri Lindqvist with additional percussion by Jussi-Pekka Manner and mastered by D. Lowndes at Resonance Sound Studio (Absu, Pallbearer, Profetus, Sigh, Wodensthrone etc.), 'Aeons in Tectonic Interment' is at once spiritual and ill-omened; a fifty-one-minute soul-searing sound apocalypse where misanthropy, suffering and imminent ruin become one achieving purification through sonic decay.

Track listing:
1. Sunless Deluge
2. A Voice Given unto Ruin
3. Preparation of a Vessel
4. The Stygian Enclave
5. Bells of the Black Basilica

Forged in 2001 by Mäkelä and Lindqvist, Tyranny was conceived under the strain of a Stranger Will to channel the Ageless resonations of Earth and Oceans and sonorous visions and fevered dreams by the means of epic, Funereal Soundscapes. In 2004 the band unsheathed their debut, 'Bleak Vistae', which shook the foundation of a small, reclusive yet inexorably-devoted funeral doom scene. Crowned an, "epic masterpiece," and commended for its, "mystical atmosphere," and, "crushing wall of sound," by Ultimate Guitar, 2005's 'Tides of Awakening' reaped the attention of critics globally. Metal Bite championed a record that was, "uncompromising and extreme," while Metal Reviews, in an "Album Of the Month" review likened it to, "a partner piece instructing in the discipline of appreciating one's own suffering." Tyranny has always operated in the shadows, worked on intuition and done things only when there was a Will and the time seemed right for it. The past ten years have been devoted to various live appearances such as Roskilde Festival, Roadburn and the Kill-Town Deathfest, and the slow writing process of 'Aeons in Tectonic Interment' – the band's most devout work to date.

'Aeons in Tectonic Interment' will see release via Dark Descent Records on CD, double LP and digitally on September 18th, 2015 with preorders and track samples to be revealed in the coming weeks.
