TEKSTI - TV 666 - 1, 2, 3 (CD)

Mini-gatefold jacket Following their 2015 Svart Records release 'Black Hole Gods', California doom trio Cardinal Wyrm return with their new full-length release 'Cast Away Souls'. With a sound described as dense and riff-laden by Terrorizer and theatrical and grandiose by Decibel, Cardinal Wyrm's latest full length continues the band's hypnotic wandering through the borderlands of reality and myth. Taking further leaps with the band's style and songwriting, guitarist Nathan Verrill and vocalist / drummer Pranjal Tiwari are joined in this genre-bending release by new addition to the Cardinal Wyrm family, Leila Abdul-Rauf (Vastum, Hammers of Misfortune, ex-Amber Asylum). A gatefold and booklet of fantastical, full-color artwork by Kim Holm (Solstafir, Vreid) serves as the only map for listeners as they drift on a river of riffs towards the sonic islands of six epic, mesmeric tracks, on a journey through dimensions within and beyond.
