Good Day Noir Family,
Ungoliath returns with The Fourfold Descent, an EP that merges raw intensity with towering, cinematic grandeur.
The Fourfold Descent is Ungoliath’s Ep Out Now
From the opening notes of Harvest of the Fallen Sun, the band unleashes a storm of grinding guitars, their serrated edges cutting deep before a soaring, melancholic solo takes over.
The icy vocal delivery follows, harsh and unforgiving, like a bitter northern wind.
Season of the Withering Flame erupts with crushing force, its chaotic riffing resembling a landslide that spares nothing in its path. The sheer speed and precision of the execution leave no room for hesitation, while the melodies buried within the storm inject an undeniable sense of scale and power.
Veins of the Awakening Earth continues the assault, its metallic bite relentless. However, a brief shift allows for a moment of reflection as a melodic passage rises, offering a contrast to the otherwise unyielding barrage of sound. It’s a rare but well-placed breath in an otherwise suffocating landscape.
Closing track Shroud of the Eternal Night slows the pace, adopting a heavier, more ritualistic rhythm. The weight of the guitars combined with the eerie atmosphere creates a hypnotic effect, drawing the listener deeper into its abyss. As the final notes fade, there’s a lingering sense of something vast and unshakable—an experience not easily forgotten.
With The Fourfold Descent, Ungoliath crafts an EP that feels immense and unrelenting, balancing chaos with an undeniable sense of grandeur.
