Black Metal

With “…by the word…”, TRELLDOM are pushing forward hard into their new musical era that was ushered in by the previous full-length “…by the shadows…” (2024), which ended a 17-year hiatus of the Norwegian band. Mastermind Kristian Eivind Espedal aka Gaahl and his diligently selected collaborators have gone even beyond the complex yet sinister sound that they established with “…by the shadows…”. The exponentially grown confidence and hard-gained experience of joining together seemingly quite different musicians is reflected clearly in each track of “…by the word…”. TRELLDOM have concluded the process of escaping the narrowest definition of black metal without compromising their artistic mission. Their music does not only stay loyal to the spirit of their black metal roots, but the Norwegians are making a solid point that their new sound is even more dark and fierce than ever before – just in more twisted and unhinged ways. “…by the word…” is the result of Espedal expanding the immense range of his vocals even further into unexplored territories.

Black Metal

From the cold northern terrain of Canada arises a new presence in the underground black metal sphere. TREMBLING VOID skulks into the recently flourishing landscape of one man black metal recording acts and announces his menacing existence like a broken buzz saw. It’s hard to ignore this dark entity.
