Death Doom titans Void Rot get ready to embark on their first European tour, so have stitched together a five track EP consisting of one brand new track, a cover version, and three live tracks taken from their exclusive CVLT Nation show.
First up the brand new, and title track ‘Telluric Dismemberment’ crawls and slithers firmly into the ear canals of the listener – at just over 6 minutes it serves as a great introductory track for people not already familiar band, and similarly something new is also great for existing fans to get behind and excited about.
My highlight track though is the fabulous cover of ‘Black Embrace’ from Amorphis’s 1993 release “Privilege of Evil” EP. For me personally it is a smart choice, as it is not predictable, and it fits in well with the previous track and aesthetic of the release.
Lastly are the three live tracks ‘Descending Pillars’, ‘Liminal Forms’, and ‘Inversion’ all taken from 2020’s very well shot CVLT Nation show. I did go back and rewatch the show in its entirety again and could not recommend it highly enough, the three tracks selected are a good representation of that show and finish this EP off well.
