Okay, so the departure of Arthur Von Nagel from Cormorant was a huge bummer, but that doesn’t mean the world has to stop spinning. Earth Diver, the group’s latest record and the first with replacement bassist/vocalist Marcus Luscombe, is now spinning exclusively at MetalSucks, and judging by the comments, we’re looking at a hit.
I’ve had Earth Diver playing for a little while and I must agree with the general consensus that this may well be better than the group’s last album Dwellings. Hope you folks like extreme metal though, because black metal seems to take a bigger piece of the pie this time around. Don’t worry though; Earth Diver is chock full of that folky prog.
Stream Earth Diver at this location and dig it into eternity. If you like what you hear, pre-order the album over at Bandcamp.
