Today, Helter Skelter Productions (distributed & marketed by Regain Records) announces June 22nd as the international release date for Lord Mortvm’s striking debut album, Diabolical Omen of Hell, on CD, vinyl LP, and cassette tape formats.
Hailing from Norway, Lord Mortvm is a mysterious new entity that plays unapologetically dark, drugged-out, and Satanic black-DOOM. The band’s debut album, Diabolical Omen of Hell is aptly titled, for it is indeed both totem and portal, journey and also destination. This beginning is your END.
Over Diabolical Omen of Hell’s 40-minute runtime, many moods and nuances become apparent as the album rides inexorably through that atmospheric vastness. The Lord is very experienced and a master of his craft; not a moment is wasted, and each note is carefully placed and assembled for maximum impact and invites the deepest contemplation. Yes, these are songs for thinkers, whether they are catalysts for internal introspection or external philosophical reflections. They are almost phrases, and they are delivered holistically to sculpt not just a collection of songs, but an immersive proof of an entire album, ebbing and flowing and taking us through the cerebral seas of misery and death.
“I’m not going to apologize for what you’re about to hear,” says the selfsame mainman of Lord Mortvm, “you’ve already been warned. All that’s left now is to wallow in this high-quality expression of tribulation and torment, and try to pick up the pieces…all hope is gone.”
Hope for the sweet salvation of the deliverance of death, then, and be swallowed by the black (w)hole of Lord Mortvm’s Diabolical Omen of Hell!
