Cavern Deep Premiere New Video “The Attuning” Feat. Thomas Jäger of Monolord; Announce Second Album

Cavern Deep The Attuning

At 11 minutes long, there’s plenty of time to hear the progression in sound from Sweden’s Cavern Deep in their new single “The Attuning.” Aside from boasting a guest appearance from Monolord guitarist/vocalist Thomas V Jäger — something that was teased in October when they unveiled their take on Philip Glass’ “Koyaanisqatsi” (premiered here) — the rolling and atmospheric progression of the new song feels very much built out from their 2021 self-titled debut (review here), and as a teaser of their impending second album, it is substantive and informative in kind.

That first record wanted nothing for patience, unfolding based around a narrative concept of an archaeologist exploring beneath the surface and finding essentially another, darker world, with all the inherent metaphor showing up musically. Atmosphere was central to the storytelling on the record and it is in “The Attuning” as well, the extended runtime of the song and the patience of its roll serving as a bed for the melodic flourish that comes through in the first half vocally before an ambient bridge serves as transition to the arrival of Jäger‘s recognizable and echoing voice. In another context, one could relate such an undulating lurch to the ocean or something aquatic — and the talk of a “distant wave” in the synopsis from the band echoes this — but true to their name, Cavern Deep are more concerned with the ground and what lies beneath it, and their breadth serves them well in that regard here. “The Attuning” has a scope that feels linear and depths enough to get lost in, and speaks to the strength of intention on the part of the still-pretty-new band, who have only shown consideration for the tale they’re telling thus far into their tenure.

With the hope of more to come as we get near the Spring release of their second full-length, here’s Cavern Deep’s video for “The Attuning,” followed by the aforementioned comment from the band on where it finds the story in progress.

Cavern Deep, “The Attuning (feat. Thomas V Jäger of Monolord)” video premiere

This spring we teamed up with Thomas V Jäger and recorded this song called “The Attuning”.

It follows The Archeologist on his journey from the cave of the first record into the realm of the second record.

The synopsis is as follows:

”At the end of his cavernous quest the archaeologist forfeit his life and slowly becomes one with the ungodly usurper. His mind is suddenly touched from afar. A distant wave snags him from the void currently closing around him, throwing the leftovers of his scattered essence into turmoil.. Into the stream… Becoming something else.”

We will soon release another of these one-off singles, and then we are on to release our second album which is now done and ready.

Cavern Deep is:
Kenny-Oswald Duvfenberg – Guitars and Vocals
Max Malmer – Bass and Vocals
Dennis Sjödin – Drums, Backup Vocals and Keys
