The Grief is excited to present our second album Crucible, to be released globally on October 6, 2023 on digipack CD & on all common streaming platforms.
(https://f4.bcbits.com/img/a1795723821_10.jpg)
The album's release will be preceded on September 15, 2023 by the lead digital single "Disenthrall" on all common streaming platforms.
Crucible features 9 songs and over 55 minutes of heart-felt doom metal. The band has chosen the stunning artwork of Yaroslav Gerj again for this album; his artwork has featured on all the band's releases to date. Crucible was recorded at various times during 2022 & early 2023 at The Barn, North Cork & was produced & engineered by Murphy and mastered by Marco Tervonen at StudioMT.
Look forward to checking out Disenthrall on Sept 15th, with several gig announcements and some Merch news to follow around then too!
Superb!
Love the last album; great melodies/harmonies

Cool song. I love the very end with the high pitched DISENTHRALL going into that solid drum beat. Epic!
I'll pick up a CD and t-shirt.
Edit. Horizon's Fall on now, ta fuck!

On my first listen here
A great step up from "Horizon's Fall"
Song structures are great; very well written
Guitar sounds are quality!
Vocals are great too; liking the deep growly delivery too
Should come across well live 8)
Congrats buachaillí !!!
We posted a new rehearsal video there this week for anyone interested - take a look:
Also added a bunch of new merch to our Bandcamp (Hoodies, bundles, socks(!) and more t-shirts to be added soon). We've also got a tape/cassette edition of Crucible coming out from a UK label & should be good to start shipping those next week....
Next gig - Dolans with Darkest Era in late December!
