Description
Morne – “Engraved With Pain” LP
The Boston band’s follow-up to the 2018 album To The Night Unknown that was released on Armageddon Records. For their fifth studio album the doom-metal punks have joined-up with Metal Blade Records. Recorded and mixed by Kurt Ballou at Godcity Studio in Salem, with mastering by Brad Boatright – ensuring that the switch to a bigger label has not adversely affected the trademark Morne sound. Picking-up the mantle left behind by Neurosis – dark, sludgy, wide-screen, apocalyptic doom – and on the whole, (speaking as someone who wasn’t always a big fan of Neurosis post Souls At Zero), doing a far better job of it, too. The soundtrack to marching with a sledgehammer towards the end of days.
