German sludge/doom metal band Eremit are taking things to another level with their uncompromising brutality and delving into long, epic songs without losing focus. Listen to the first of three songs that is streaming on the official Bandcamp page and also on YouTube. Your patience will not only reward you but will also crush your bones into fragments small enough to be swept away by the wind.
Monolithic sludge/doom band Eremit give us one of the heaviest and most ambitious album the style has seen in recent times. Featuring stunning album artwork by Mariusz Lewandowski (Bell Witch), the band trudge though turbulent, winding structures without letting them affect the overall momentum. There are three epic songs, with the longest being over 33 minutes, where they flesh out every nuance and showcase rare depth while retaining unparalleled brutality. Being the band’s debut, the emotions are all too raw and palpable, but perhaps that’s what’s needed to get the point across. This is undiluted, straight-from-the-heart, maxed out sludge/doom with moments of poignancy ensconced in the bludgeoning heaviness.
