Clarion Void to Release ‘Failure in Repetition’ March 1; “The Top” Video Posted
I’m not always huge on aural char as an ingredient in a given band’s stylistic ooze, but Clarion Void incorporate black metal influences fluidly on “The Top,” which is the first single from their upcoming second album, Failure in Repetition, and I find the tonal bite that accompanies — you’ll note the Greg Wilkinson production mentioned below — satisfying in line with the shifts in tempo in a way that doesn’t always click.
And if you think Failure in Repetition might not live up to its intentions as regards slog, “The Top” is harsh and despondent enough to clear any confusion on the issue, but the tempo is fluid and they’re not afraid to lean into one side or the other of their sound. I guess that doesn’t mean much until you listen to the track. Fair enough. It’s at the bottom of the post as usual. I’ll look forward to getting to know the record.
The PR wire had the following:
Clarion Void share “The Top” video from forthcoming album Failure In Repetition
Blackened doom & sludge band’s sophomore album produced by Grammy nominee Greg Wilkinson (High on Fire, Pallbearer)
Colorado Springs, CO band Clarion Void share the official video for “The Top”. “The Top” is the first single from Failure in Repetition, their forthcoming sophomore album, and debut on Lost Future Records. Stream the single on all DSPs HERE: https://songwhip.com/clarionvoid/the-top
Failure in Repetition is the newest album from the Colorado Springs, CO based doom-metal quartet Clarion Void. Focused on themes of inevitability and the futility of progress, the album crushes the listener with detuned, sludgy riffs before exploding into a breakneck black metal onslaught. Not for the faint of heart.
Failure in Repetition was recorded with Grammy nominated producer Greg Wilkinson (High on Fire, Pallbearer) at his studio in Oakland, CA.
The album will be available on LP and digital on March 1st, 2024 via Lost Future Records. Pre-orders are available HERE: https://clarionvoidco.bandcamp.com/
