Black vinyl with gatefold cover

Apostle Of Solitude have been around in some form or anothersince 2004; the group has made a name for themselves over the pastdecade as one of the Midwest's most potent and articulate doommetal exports. Their fourth full-length album, From Gold To Ash, isa mesmerizing statement from these Indianapolis natives. It hascolossal riffs, multi layered vocals, and the same particularmomentum that made bands like Candlemass so special and drew somany listeners to the genre in the first place. This is the sort ofsonic poetry the genre needs to stay alive. One of the things thatmakes Apostle Of Solitude so exciting is the sheer quality of theguitar work. Their circular riffs create reassuring drones. Theyhave developed a name simply based on the magic of the music. Thisis doom metal that understands the genre is still fundamentally avariant on rock music; this means that rather than getting lost inesoterica, the group instead focuses on producing tracks that youjust want to listen to. Sure some of them might fall into thecliches of the genre, but that's kind of the point—that's whatmakes this fun. From Gold To Ash is going to leave you in awe ofApostle Of Solitude; the record shows us a band who are in lovewith the emotional power of doom metal and who have the chops tomatch it. This isn't another group of pretenders wailing away andrecycling the same dull riffs. There are real melodies here andexciting elements that serve to make this a fascinating listen—onewhere the songwriting really forces you to take note. Perhaps theirbest-produced offering yet, Apostle Of Solitude keep long-formsongs while trimming the fat. Every moment here fits and nothingseems like an excuse just to pad out the record in the name of'keeping it slow' or whatever bullshit the kids are tellingthemselves these days. This is an album that sounds and feelsabsolutely massive and I'm excited to keep coming back to it.
