Threads of Unknowing

by VoidCeremony

supported by

GMurphrygian Intelligent, Progressive Doom?! Spacy and spacious, but not entropy. Heavy riffs and spacious atmospheres. Cool take on metal, and nice Alan Holdsworth sound on the lead guitar. This album recalls some great prog and jazz fusion from yesteryear and runs it through the death metal filter.

If you like the dominant chords and jazz elements, check out "Mechanical Fiction" by The Gorge. Underrated gem.

Salami Dick Death Cosmic/Cavernous Death Metal with an extra Prog twist done very well. This album adds Phil Tougas guitar solos to a few songs for some extra juice.

ALL HAIL FRETLESS BASS

RJ Devastating old school death metal at the core with enough riffage, hooks, groove, neoclassical-esque guitar solos, and progressive, even jazz-like tendencies to keep things from becoming monotonous. 8/10 Favorite track: Abyssic Knowledge Bequeathed.

about

Upon the release of the first full length album ‘Entropic Reflections Continuum: Dimensional Unravel’ it was instantly revealed that VoidCeremony were treading a path few walk. The album proved that Death Metal can be performed with the gliding, controlled chaos and smooth fluidity of a jazz quartet, while still leaving the listener holed up in a dungeon, low on HP, out of spells, and surrounded by deadly demons.

‘Threads of Unknowing” is a journey which resurrects concepts on earlier display and summons evermore progressive and technical compositions. Mastermind and guitarist/vocalist Garrett Johnson and guitar virtuoso Phil Tougas (Atramentus, Chthe’ilist, Worm, First Fragment) share both vocals and lead guitar duties here, while bass god Damon Good weaves both fretted and fretless bass mastery and drummer Charlie Koryn encompasses not only speed and brutality, but a fine mix of precision and improvisation from jazz fusion. The end result is VoidCeremony and their signature sound: Time-melting Death Black Fusion.

With an apt cover painting representing the lyrical and philosophical vision of an ancient and forgotten future, VoidCeremony itself seems to be operating on an alternate Death Metal timeline that once made itself known, but only briefly, and was soon left behind for more commercial appeal. Yet the portal has been re-opened and the merging of these boundless possibilities and directions are now being brought forth directly once again.
