Shrine of Denial

Turkish death/black metal band Shrine of Denial has set March 7th as the international release date for their debut album. Titled I, Moloch, the eight track debut album will come out via Transcending Obscurity Records.

Shrine of Denial blends styles and forges their own sound, channeling it through narrative, superbly thought out structures that despite the twists and turns remain memorable. Perhaps it is a Turkish trait to have the songs this meticulously written, and to achieve that Shrine of Denial has used elements of both death and black metal in varying degrees, often blurring the boundaries between the two in the process. The result is exhilarating, as the band effortlessly switches from fast, blasting parts to slow melodic hooks. Then, quickly accelerates back to their high-speed mode, using whatever stylistic liberties available.

It is an engaging, intense and stirring album that doesn’t get carried away. Moreover, it goes beyond what is necessary or appropriate. Indeed, despite the vagaries, it remains solid, cohesive and impactful throughout. For what it does, I, Moloch is one of the strongest albums not only to come out of that region in recent times, but also in the blackened death metal style as a whole.

Lineup:
Eray Nabi – Vocals
Onur Uslu – Guitar
Denizkaan Aracı – Guitars
Ahmet Ünveren – Bass
