NEWS: The Absence muse on “This Consuming Nocturne”!
Celebrating the release of their album “Coffinized” this past weekend via M-Theory Audio, The Absence have put together a lyric video for one of its standouts in “This Consuming Nocturne“. The Florida-based Melodic Death Metal group are ones that you maybe familiar with from their other outside endeavors, with drummer Jeramie Kling manning the kit for Venom Inc., bassist Mike Leon gigging with Soulfly and Cavalera Conspiracy, guitarist Taylor Nordberg playing with Massacre and vocalist Jamie Stewart in Hot Graves. Mixed by Kling and mastered by Jonas Kjellgren (Immortal, Overkill, Scar Symmetry) at Sweden’s Black Lounge Studios this is one to check out for those who love the 2003 Metalcore sound…
Vocalist Jamie Stewart comments: “With the lyric video for ‘This Consuming Nocturne’ we went for a silent film visual, coupled with the song’s gloomy, yet triumphant atmosphere. The track itself, also serves in part as a sequel to the song ‘Walking Shadows,’ released in 2019. Where ‘Walking Shadows’ speaks of a dark, self-reflective realization, ‘This Consuming Nocturne’ is about searching through the darkness itself, facing the lonely registers of night. It’s about finding your answers, waiting under the drape of twilight.”
