Single Slam: Obey the Kraken and Spirit Adrift!
Today’s single slam features Obey the Kraken and Spirit Adrift. You can read our thoughts about the latest singles from these bands below.
Obey the Kraken – Netherworld
Germany’s deathcore wrecking force Obey the Kraken have unleashed ‘Netherworld’, the second single from their forthcoming EP, Apocrypha, out 10th April via Seek & Strike.
A brutal showcase of stomping intensity, Obey the Kraken’s goal was clearly to slam as hard as possible here, and they certainly reach it. Yet, what really makes this track a bit cooler is the cinematic edge it has, adding some drama to things. At its core though, all anyone will remember is how hard it goes.
Spirit Adrift – Eternal Celestial Energy
Heavy metal doom giants Spirit Adrift have returned with a new single called ‘Eternal Celestial Energy,’ out via 20 Buck Spin.
Dark, moody, drama-laden, and effortlessly captivating, this new Spirit Adrift doesn’t change the doomy formula up too much, but still delivers something wholly unforgettable. Thick riffs, layers of heavy groove, soaring vocals, and delightful devilish detail makes it an unforgettable listen.
