CHASMA Ink Deal With Moribund Records
August 27, 2011, 13 years ago
Moribund Records has announced the signing of CHASMA. A trio from Portland, Oregon, the band are set to release their debut, Declarations Of The Grand Artificer, later this year. With three songs clocking in at nearly 33 minutes, Chasma's Declarations Of The Grand Artificer "is a bewildering but above all transcendent record, an epic recasting of classic black metal into otherworldly shapes and a plausibly modern contour," according to a press release.
A specific release date for the album will be announced shortly.
"Musically, we are influenced by new millenium-era French black metal and DC screamo," says the band. "And bands like WEAKLING, JOYLESS, AMESEOURS and MAJORITY RULE. We are influenced by the intensity and passion of our brotherhood as musicians and try to express that passion through dimension bending riffs. We don't really fit the black metal label; we consider ourselves either noir nouveau ['new black'] or bright metal."For more details visit Chasmablack.tumblr.com.
