Our Take
Our Take
In a world full of bland musical offerings, WORM SHEPHERD's latest album, "Ritual Hymns," stands out like a technicolour dreamcoat at a funeral. This British band has truly mastered the art of combining doom-laden riffs with ethereal melodies, creating a sound that is both otherworldly and headbang-worthy.
From the opening track, "The Summoning," it's clear that WORM SHEPHERD are not here to play it safe. The thunderous drums and distorted guitars create a sense of impending doom, while the haunting vocals float over the top like a ghostly apparition. It's a truly spine-tingling experience that will leave you reaching for the nearest crucifix.
As the album progresses, WORM SHEPHERD continues to push the boundaries of what doom metal can be. Tracks like "Cult of the Serpent" and "Dark Ritual" are masterclasses in how to create tension and release, with the band effortlessly moving between crushing heaviness and delicate beauty.
But it's not all doom and gloom on "Ritual Hymns." The band injects moments of dark humour and irony throughout, adding a layer of complexity to their sound. It's like watching a Hammer horror film while high on acid - thrilling, unsettling, and utterly unforgettable.
In conclusion, "Ritual Hymns" is a triumph for WORM SHEPHERD. It's a sonic journey that will take you to the very depths of hell and back, leaving you exhilarated and terrified in equal measure. Do yourself a favour and give it a spin - just make sure you've got a nightlight handy.
