Worm Ouroboros- What Graceless Dawn
2016 release. With their third album What Graceless Dawn, Oakland's Worm Ouroboros bring into existence their deepest and most moving work yet. On the follow-up to the band's sophomore release, 2012's Come The Thaw, bassist/vocalist Lorraine Rath (ex-The Gault / Amber Asylum), guitarist/vocalist Jessica Way (Barren Harvest), and drummer Aesop Dekker (Vhol, ex-Agalloch / Ludicra) take the band's sound to a new level of sophistication through their amalgam of morose 4AD-esque doom, introspective death rock, dark ambient, and enchanting chamber goth. Replete with obsessive bass lines, ambient guitar layers and overtones, the alluring vocal intertwining between Rath and Way, and Dekker's subtle yet procession-like percussion, this sonic vision of tragedy and despair brings the curtain down on the year with one of the most crippling and gut-wrenching releases in the realm.
Tracklist:
- Day
- Broken Movements
- Suffering Tree
- Ribbon Of Shadow
- (Was It) The Cruelest Thing
- Night
