Towards Atlantis Lights to Release Dust of Aeons March 5
Multinational death-doomers Towards Atlantis Lights have set March 5 as the arrival date for their sorrow-filled debut album, Dust of Aeons. To be released via Transcending Obscurity, the record comprises four tracks, the first and most substantial of which is “The Bunker of Life,” which is practically an album unto itself as it clocks in at a dynamic half-an-hour’s runtime and presents a full scope of melody and extremity, balancing lurching crawl and classic, My Dying Bride-style dramas off deep-weighted low and end deathly growling. Maybe it’s winter settling on my soul, but I can’t seem to get enough of this kind of thing lately. Whatever’s doing it, Towards Atlantis Lights have plenty of misery to go around.
The PR wire brought that massive track and more background on the band and impending release:
