TRACK PREMIERE: Finnish death/doom executioners Altar of Betelgeuze unleash "Advocates of Deception"


Altar of Betelgeuze from Finland are onto something special. Not content with playing either doom or death metal, the band merge influences from both realms so to speak and create a seamless sound where clean singing and growls both have a place. 

Essentially Altar of Betelgeuze play stoner doom but with the heaviness and relative structuring of death metal. Long, winding songs that are at once emotive and crushing enthral the listener for extended periods of time, while you are left wondering about suitable parallels for this unique band. 'Among the Ruins' their brand new album set for release via Transcending Obscurity Recordsis a definitive present-day album, when it's no longer about mimicking your idols but taking the sound forward in a logical, sincere manner. 

Today at The Sludgelord it gives us great pleasure to premiere the track six from the album “Advocates of Deception” which you can check out below.  Preorders for 'Among the Ruins' are available here
