TOMB MOLD
The bottomless perdition / The Moulting

(..)" ma è l’intera tracklist a rivelare il rinnovato spessore artistico dei canadesi; la conferma inesorabile della loro maturazione arriva proprio ascoltando il disco nel suo insieme, nel cui sviluppo il gruppo riesce nell’impresa di catalizzare mood fondamentalmente classici senza mai cadere nella trappola della prevedibile derivazione, sfoderando riff esaltanti e pillole di vero ingegno a cadenza regolare. Smisurata passione e un indubbio background da veri death metal fan completano il quadro. I Tomb Mold sono diventati grandi.(..)

After releasing three albums in three years and then spending the next four in the wilderness, Tomb Mold has been reborn on fourth album The Enduring Spirit, a thoroughly unabashed step into vast new territories. Yet for all its frenetic daring and audacious exploration, it is never anything other than unmistakably Tomb Mold.

While the expanding Tomb Mold architecture could be heard on last year’s self-released Aperture Of Body tape, it comes into clear focus throughout The Enduring Spirit. Certainly Derrick Vella’s time creating within and expanding the doom genre in Dream Unending has seeped into the flesh of Tomb Mold, not to mention Payson Power and Max Klebanoff’s explorations in their own Daydream Plus project.

With album opener “The Perfect Memory (Phantasm of Aura)” the band’s angular dimension shifting riffing appears right out of the gate as the track travels through varying degrees of progressive death metal and some of the band’s most extreme material yet. “Will Of Whispers” enters with a jazz-like fantasy sequence before careening into a blinding white light barrage, tasteful guitar leads and back to a dreamy serpentine pattern, encompassing whole universes in its nearly seven minute run-time.
