MARRAS

Today, Finnish black metal elite Marras stream the entirety of their highly anticipated second album, Endtime Sermon. Set for international release on July 9th via Spread Evil Productions, hear Marras‘ Endtime Sermon in its entirety here:

It was but the autumn of 2019 when Marras burst from the void, fully formed, with their widely celebrated debut album, Where Light Comes to Die. Although a then-brand-new entity, the black metal this Finnish formation conjured forth exuded an ageless wisdom – which is not surprising given that the Marras‘ members hail several highly respected bands.

Now, as this cursed epoch continues on, Marras swiftly return with their second album, Endtime Sermon. Indeed aptly titled, Endtime Sermon sonically encapsulates the haunted (and haunting) sensations of these incredibly dark days: mania, depression, hopelessness, fear, longing, DEATH. That the expanded sextet can take these varied-yet-related sensations and brew them into black metal of a most quintessentially Finnish aspect and make each track a new-yet-unified experience is something special, and further proof that the Marras of Where Light Comes to Die was no fluke. If anything, Endtime Sermon spans delirious violence and stoic mysticism with equal aplomb, all joined together by a through-thread of the (darkly) cinematic, but the message remains the same: there still is no light, and these are the endtimes whether we accept the fact or choose to ignore it.

There will be ignoring Marras upon the release of Endtime Sermon. Heed their wisdom, or perish unenlightened.

Cover and tracklisting are as follows:

Today, Spread Evil Productions announces November 19th as the international release date for Marras‘ striking debut album, Where Light Comes to Die. Rising from the depths of mid-Finland, Marras might be a new name as a  band, but the forces behind it surely are not new to the scene and the Black Arts. Featuring members from known Finnish hordes Vargrav, Förgjord, Nekrokrist SS, and Mimorium, the result is undoubtedly an image of  its creators: reaping, hateful, and bleak, reeking of the northern unlight and harsh coldness that’s well known in Finnish black metal. Shifting  from fast, raging black metal to more atmospheric parts, accompanied by samples and mid-intros to boost up the mood, this aptly titled debut album completely captivates the listener with all that you can expect from the souls of the North. Indeed, Marras show you Where Light Comes to Die… In the meantime, follow their lead down that path with the new title track “Where Light Comes to Die” HERE. Distribution for the album is handled by Militant Underground. Cover and tracklisting are as follows:

Tracklisting for Marras’ Where Light Comes to Die 1. Prologi (Guidance) 2. Overture of the Lonely Journey 3. Lifeless Sculptures 4. Prologi (Faith) 5. Sea of Trees 6. Prologi (Damnation) 7. Transition of the Lightless Path 8. Where Light Comes to Die 9. Prologi (Desolation) 10. Chamber of Penance
