A work that will reveal itself as one of the darkest and most oppressive EVOKEN albums among their unparalleled repertoire.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhere 2018's Hypnagogia would see the band capture and focus on a more melancholic, tangible, and even more of an accessible sonic design, Mendacium takes that acute shift back to the monumental dirge-like dread and woeful catacombic and disharmonious heaviness reminiscent of the band's Quietus and Antitheses of Light masterworks. All while still encapsulating the tectonic-shifting nature of their Caress of the Void and Atra Mors releases while venturing more through classic gothic audial textures and even treading a little down experimental mire as well, reminiscing an aura seeping from such luminary artists as Dead Can Dance, Monumentum, and Disembowelment.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTo signal this shift in sound harking back to this previous era, the band would recall the services of producer Ron \"Bumblefoot\" Thal who worked with EVOKEN on their Antithesis of Light and Quietus albums respectively. The result being Mendacium capturing a sepulchral heaviness saturated in ambience with even more of an emphasis on deathlike dread and anguish; an ambience reflecting the depths and catacombs of an ancient cathedral or monastery, ultimately defining Mendacium as EVOKEN's most powerful sounding album to date.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWith their new album Mendacium, EVOKEN, the veteran masters of US funeral death\/doom metal, return with one of their darkest and most oppressive albums yet. An album that harks back to their earlier works, namely their Quietus and Antithesis of Light albums respectively.\u003cbr\u003eEVOKEN have always been recognized as one of the godfathers of the death\/funeral doom genre and the best and most praised American band in said genre. A band that has paved the way for other bands such as Bell Witch etc.\u003cbr\u003eFor fans of Mournful Congregation, Bell Witch, Esoteric, and My Dying Bride.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLP 2LP + download code Tracks: 1.
