The Grief - "Ascent" EP now streaming

[Carnage]

Yep, CD please.

Thanks chaps,

No plans for tapes/cd's/vinyl for now still anyway. We have 5 more songs planned to come out as a second digital EP in the summer, self released. But we're checking for label interest between now and then and if we get a bite then no doubt there'll be a CD release. Failing that (and our current plan) there'll be the 2nd  digital EP and then maybe at end of year, we'll consider a self-release of all 9 songs on a limited CD run. For now

Hadn't made through a whole doom metal album twice in a roll since Abysmal Grief's Blasphema Secta....  this is so good!!! It reeks of My Dying bride and Paradise Lost and it still has its own thing going on.

Superb stuff!! It would be a shame not see this being released on vinyl.

[Anton Arcane]

This is the rare kind of band that would sicken your hole by how good they are and that truly is the best praise I can give.

Thanks folks, very much appreciated!

Ah, interesting read, roll on Descent! And a gig with Graveyard Dirt perhaps? 👍

[Eoin McLove]

I have this on here now. A gig with Mourning Beloveth and Graveyard Dirt would be great alright. 

[Floss]

Indeed it would....

A gig anywhere with anyone would be great these days for that matter...!

[Floss]

I have no idea how, but we got nominated for some metal Eurovision thing somehow... naturally free publicity is welcome so please give us a 1 vote at the link below!

Maybe ye were mixed up with Carnal Tomb already releasing "Ascend" and "Descend" as two separate releases??

I had Ascend already, with another recording in my wish list for a future investigative listen. Checking things before BC waive fees again and only copped the name and the re-recording of the same tracks.
