Our Take

Inglorious Darkness, the latest offering from gothic metal veterans CREMATORY, is a haunting exploration of the dark and mysterious. Drawing inspiration from the depths of the underworld, this album takes listeners on a journey through eerie melodies and thunderous riffs.

From the moment the opening track, "Hour of the Wolf," kicks in, you can feel the hairs on the back of your neck stand on end. The band's signature blend of symphonic elements and crushing guitars creates a rich sonic landscape that is both captivating and menacing.

Lead vocalist Felix Stass delivers a powerful performance, his growls and clean vocals adding depth and emotion to each track. The lyrics delve into themes of loss, despair, and the struggle for redemption, painting a vivid picture of a world consumed by darkness.

Standout tracks like "Forever Us" and "Warfare" showcase CREMATORY's ability to craft anthemic hooks that will have you headbanging along in no time. The album reaches its climax with the epic closer, "For All of Us," a sweeping ballad that leaves you feeling both uplifted and contemplative.

Overall, Inglorious Darkness is a triumph for CREMATORY, proving once again why they are a force to be reckoned with in the world of metal. So grab your black eyeliner, turn up the volume, and let yourself be consumed by the glorious darkness that this album has to offer.
