Morne - Asylum

Morne's brand of apocalyptic post-sludge / crust incorporates influences from genre pioneers Neurosis and Isis as well as traditional heavy metal, doom metal, prog and even the classic post-punk / new wave of Joy Division or early Cure. This epic sound, cinematic in scope and unrelentingly heavy, is on full display on their newest release, Asylum. The album is a grandiose journey through monolithic intensity and earth-crumbling ambient moments that climaxes with the gut-wrenching Volition, featuring Jarboe and Kris Force of Amber Asylum. Alternately haunting and crushing, Asylum is destined to because a triumph in the realm of post-metal.
