Description
Back from the rugged shores of the Baltic Sea with an emotional bang: Marianas Rest present their fifth studio album, The Bereaved, and are more intense, personal, and atmospheric than ever before. The band from Kotka uniquely combines elements of doom, death, and post-metal to create a sound that gets deep under your skin. Heavy, slow, moving – and yet repeatedly interspersed with powerful melodies that take your breath away.
“The Bereaved” tells a deeply personal story of loss, death, and the endless struggle with guilt, memory, and acceptance. A soundtrack for all those moments when darkness and comfort are inextricably intertwined – carried by the typical Finnish melancholy that unites beauty and pain in perfect symbiosis.
Following their acclaimed albums “Horror Vacui” (2016), “Ruins” (2019), “Fata Morgana” (2021), and “Auer” (2023), Marianas Rest are opening a new chapter with this release – and consistently continuing their artistic development. With their new label Noble Demon behind them, the band sounds more powerful and expressive than ever.
