NEWS: Garden of Stone share “Idol of Flesh”!
As their debut EP “Tides f Decay” is around the metaphorical corner as it releases on 15th February via Inverse Records, Finnish Melancholic Metal quintet Garden of StoneĀ have shared a second single from it in “Idol of Flesh” in lyric video form. Available for pre-order over at bandcamp, the record finds the band weaving together melancholic rock and heavy metal so you can expect brooding atmospheres and beautiful melodies as well as face melting riffs.
GuitaristĀ Ville Penkari comments: “Idol of Flesh is the second single from Garden of Stone’s upcoming debut EP, Tides of Decay. The song showcases the band at their heaviest. Where Hymn of a Dead Man Pt.1 is slow and brooding, Idol of Flesh is fast and heavy. The song hits hard at the listener until the heavy guitars and brutal screams turn into a soft embrace of clean guitar and singing melodies. This does not go on for too long, as the song is driven home with the energy that was established at the beginning, without forgetting a breakdown that will make your neck move without your permission. The lyrics handle fear as an entity that is crowned as both the ruler of all and the highest currency.”
