Crepuscular Dirge For The Blessed Ones

Luke Warmwater The perfect mix of atmosphere and riffage. Cosmic Putrefaction does not just balance these two styles, but uses them to enhance each other. The riffs hit so hard because they're placed within a melodic and spacey world where their impact is contextualized. And vise versa. It is more than the sum of its already massive parts. Favorite track: Amniotic Bewilderment.

Bart Dense vicious death metal. Takes repeated listens for it to really hook into your brain. Worth the effort. Favorite track: Sol's Upheaval Debris.

about

On “Crepuscular Dirge For The Blessed Ones”, sole mastermind Gabriele Garmaglia continues the COSMIC PUTREFACTION narrative begun on the previous album “The Horizons Towards Which Splendour Withers”, where the only survivor from an apocalyptic annihilation of a dying planet walks towards its withered horizons. On “Crepuscular Dirge…” this character ultimately finds an even more sorrowful truth at the end of his journey; one that shows the empyrean fall of man through the metaphysical world and the gods whom inhabit it.

Through “Crepuscular Dirge For The Blessed Ones”, Gramaglia establishes even more his own vision of death metal, this time enriching his multifaceted sound with widened atmospheres and a patina of omnipresent melancholy suggested by distant arpeggios, e-bow guitars and sometimes even synths organically blended with the relentless, ferocious riffs always present in this new effort. To cap off this layered effort, Gramaglia this time relied on drummer Giulio Galati (Nero di Marte, Hideous Divinity) to deliver an extremely powerful and dynamic performance behind the kit.

COSMIC PUTREFACTION was formed in 2018 as the death metal sonic incarnation of the multi-instrumentalist Gabriele Gramaglia (also behind The Clearing Path and part of Turris Eburnea and Vertebra Atlantis), which summoned the aforementioned musical entity to re-arrange and complete the unreleased album of his first band Oaken/Throne, which begun in 2012 but was left uncompleted because the combo disbanded. This album was completed and released in 2019 under the name of “At the Threshold of the Greatest Chasm”, which comprehended six-and-a-half tracks taken from the unreleased Oaken/Throne album. He later refined his formula through the second album “The Horizons Towards Which Splendour Withers” which expanded the death metal roots with the multifaceted range of influences Gramaglia has developed throughout the years.
