MASS WORSHIP Discuss Making Portal Tombs Album In New Video Interview
May 12, 2022, 2 years ago
Mass Worship have released the new video below in support of their recently released full-length album, Portal Tombs. Dadde and Fred talk you through the process of constructing the album. They discuss the backdrop to the concepts and lyrical themes, musical aspirations as well as some of the challenges faced while in the studio.
Portal Tombs is a terrifying but electrifying exploration of the gloomy depths of human nature: a monolithic manifestation of the musical force that is Mass Worship. The album features guest appearances by Jonas Stålhammar of At The Gates, Mark ‘Barney’ Greenway of Napalm Death, and Jonas Renkse of Katatonia/Bloodbath.
“It’s pretty mind-blowing to have members of such inspirational pioneers on our own album”, says the band.
Drawing inspiration from bands such as At The Gates, Mastodon and Meshuggah, Mass Worship could be likened to many bands, but somehow forge their musical identity into something exceptionally distinctive and transcendent, and with enough confidence and conviction to win over even the most orthodox fans of the genre.
