Melancholia Book Of Ruination

Bellingham, WA duo MELANCHOLIA have announced their debut album Book of Ruination. Formed in 2018, the duo has already released three EPs that have made waves through the underground. Book of Ruination, their most ambitious release to date, is a meditation into the void of sonic darkness and esoteric philosophy… an immense journey through life, death, and what lies beyond.True to its name, MELANCHOLIA explores dread and anguish in all of its malformed glory through the lenses of crushing doom/sludge, ferocious black metal/death metal and raw, primitive crust punk. Unified by bleak lyrical themes, suffocating atmosphere, psychedelic dissonance and striking visual art by vocalist/guitarist Gage Lindsay, MELANCHOLIA exist to push the boundaries of extreme music.Book of Ruination was recorded at The Unknown Studio in Anacortes, WA with Rich Canut III. The album was mastered by Adam Pike (Red Fang, Murder by Death) and Nate Abner (Graves at Sea). SIDE A:1. Ode To Ruination2. Sunscathed3. Circadian Throes4. Yersinia In BloomSIDE B:1.
