Thaw - Fading Backwards - CD DIGIPAK

Poland's experimental black metal five-piece THAW is thrilled to announce the release of its fifth album, marking its long-awaited return after years of hiatus. The album, featuring six tracks, is the quintessence of the band's musical identity, showcasing its unique sound in a new light.

The musical layer on THAW's new album truly captures the essence of the band, combining vibrant sounds with heavy, low-tuned guitars. These powerful sounds are further enriched with noisy electronics, adding depth and character to each track.

Most of the music were recorded live, giving the tracks a rawness and authenticity, and then carefully overdubbed to achieve the optimal sound. However, it is not just the instruments that de?ne this album. The approach to the vocal parts is completely new.

The entire album was recorded at the renowned Monochrom Studio (Behemoth, Entropia), where THAW could fully exploit its artistic potential, creating sounds that are both powerful and full of subtle nuances.

THAW, known for its relentless pursuit of new forms of expression, proves with this album that its musical journey is far from over. The new record is not only a return to the band's roots but also a step forward, showing that the group still has a lot to offer.

"We are happy and excited that the new THAW album will ?nally see the light of day," comments THAW. "We know that the process of writing and recording this latest album took a signi?cant amount of time. However, we are satis?ed with the ?nal result and are eager to see the world's reaction to what will soon be presented to all of you."

"Fading Backwards" was mixed and mastered by Haldor Grunberg and Krzysztof Kurek at Satanic Audio (Pestilence, Azarath, Behemoth). The cover artwork was designed by Artur Masternak.
