In the realm of extreme metal, few bands command as much respect and admiration as Montreal-based atmospheric death metal outfit Phobocosm. After a four-year hiatus that left fans eagerly awaiting their return, the band has finally broken their silence with the announcement of their upcoming album ‘Necropolis,’ set to be released later this year.
Formed in 2008, Phobocosm quickly made a name for themselves with their unique blend of blackened death metal and dark, atmospheric soundscapes. Their previous releases, including the critically acclaimed ‘Deprived,’ showcased the band’s penchant for crafting complex and immersive sonic landscapes that plunge listeners into the depths of darkness and despair.
With ‘Necropolis,’ Phobocosm promises to push the boundaries of their sound even further, delivering a harrowing and haunting musical journey that explores themes of decay, death, and the inevitable passage of time. The band’s vocalist and guitarist, Henri Sarvala, describes the album as a reflection of the band’s growth and evolution over the past few years.
“We wanted to create something that would challenge both ourselves and our listeners,” Sarvala explains. “With ‘Necropolis,’ we delved deep into the darkest corners of our minds to create a sonic experience that is both unsettling and cathartic.”
Fans of Phobocosm can expect ‘Necropolis’ to feature the band’s trademark blend of dissonant riffs, thunderous drums, and haunting atmospherics, all woven together to create a dense and foreboding soundscape. The album’s artwork, created by renowned artist Mariusz Lewandowski, further sets the tone for the dark and mysterious journey that awaits listeners.
In addition to the announcement of ‘Necropolis,’ Phobocosm has also revealed plans for a series of live performances to support the album. The band is known for their intense and captivating stage presence, and fans can look forward to experiencing their crushing sound in a live setting once again.
“We’re incredibly excited to bring ‘Necropolis’ to life on stage,” says Sarvala. “Our live shows are a visceral and immersive experience, and we can’t wait to share that with our fans once again.”
As anticipation for ‘Necropolis’ continues to build, Phobocosm remains a beacon of innovation and creativity in the world of extreme metal. With their uncompromising vision and dedication to their craft, the band is sure to leave an indelible mark on the genre with their latest offering.
For fans of atmospheric and dark metal, ‘Necropolis’ promises to be a must-listen album that will solidify Phobocosm’s status as one of the most formidable and intriguing bands in the scene.
