Our Take

In their latest offering, "Eidolon," doom duo ZAUM take listeners on a mystical journey through the sonic abyss. The album opens with haunting chants and droning guitars that immediately set the tone for what's to come - an otherworldly experience that is both transcendent and downright heavy.

There's a sense of ritualistic fervour throughout the album, with tracks like "Relic" and "Pantheon" conjuring images of ancient temples and shadowy ceremonies. The hypnotic rhythms and mantra-like vocals create a sense of continuous pulse, drawing you deeper into their sonic realm with each passing minute.

But it's not all doom and gloom - ZAUM injects moments of light and melody into the darkness, as seen in the shimmering guitars of "The Enlightenment" and the ethereal harmonies of "Procession." These moments provide a welcome respite from the heaviness, offering a glimmer of hope amidst the chaos.

Overall, "Eidolon" is a masterclass in doom metal mysticism, showcasing ZAUM's ability to create a truly immersive listening experience. Whether you're a seasoned doom enthusiast or just dipping your toes into the genre, this album is sure to leave you spellbound and reaching for the repeat button. So grab your incense, light some candles, and prepare to be taken on a sonic journey like no other.
