Archaeaeon

Archaeaeon cover art

The debut full-length from the Canadian trio plunges death metal into a murky, suffocating abyss of occult chaos. The incredibly dense, lo-fi production style buries the intricate, technical guitar work beneath a swirling storm of blast beats and terrifying, cavernous vocal roars. It was a foundational release for the emerging wave of 'caverncore' and dissonant black/death metal fusions.
