Graveward

by Sigh

Graveward cover art

The veteran Japanese black metal eccentrics craft a wildly theatrical album heavily inspired by classic Italian horror cinema and vintage symphonic metal. Integrating intense orchestration, prominent saxophone solos, and bizarre, carnival-esque keyboard melodies alongside Mirai Kawashima's raspy vocals. Guest guitar solos from metal legends like Matt Heafy add extra shredding power to the wonderfully chaotic cinematic arrangements.
