“The Blood You Crave” is now playing in full at No Clean Singing, who commented “The band discharge searing riffs that channel both fury and despair, as well as relentlessly cauterizing screams whose sounds of shattering torment send shivers down the spine.”
Check out the full album here.
With a resume that includes past and present stints in a wide and varied selection of bands like Eleventh He Reaches London, Futility, Illimitable Dolor, Lycanthia, Sleepmakeswaves and Tucker B’s, OAR ‘s band members absorbed all these influences to craft an album that explores such wide-raging genres as post-black metal, doom and even hardcore.
Recorded and mixed by Ben Worsey at Everland Studios in Sydney, the follow-up to 2018’s EP “Sect Burner” shows the band’s evolution from its early lo-fi blackgaze approach to full frequency post-black metal, unleashing the songs on “The Blood You Crave” at their true intensity. Pre-orders will be available at this location.
