NIGHTMARER • Deformity Adrift • LP
Nightmarer is back with their second album! The death metal band, composed of current and former members of The Ocean, War From A Harlots Mouth, and Gigan, once again succeeds in crafting dark, dissonant, and extremely vicious songs. "Deformity Adrift" is set to be released through Vendetta.
Formed in 2014, the international collective Nightmarer set out to embrace only the most extreme elements of their musical influences and take them to a much bleaker and nastier level. Two years later, the band reached the extreme metal underground with their debut EP "Chasm." Another two years down the line saw the release of their debut album "Cacophony Of Terror" (2018). It then took some time for the band to embark on recording their second album, "Deformity Adrift."
Undoubtedly, it's the band's most diverse work to date, pushing well beyond the conventions of the already unconventional genre of dissonant death metal, all without sacrificing an ounce of malevolence. The album is a 32-minute acoustic behemoth that is simultaneously perplexing and devastating. Strong nuances of industrial and doom metal are consistently present, and the nine tracks on the album appropriately conclude with a suffocating wall of sound that leaves its listeners bruised, shattered, and shaken.
