Ferum to release "Asunder / Erode" on August 19th!

Ferum is a death doom metal band originated in Italy, but now scattered over two countries.

"Asunder / Erode", the band’s debut album, is an obsessive and monolithic record. Slow, funereal riffs are tied to faster, sharper parts, while harmonized melodies and solos paint a cavernous atmosphere. The drums wisely marches, moving from the background into the spotlight, always followed by the bass guitar.

Conceptually, "Asunder / Erode" is a journey that explores the idea of separation and its dichotomy, up to erosion and collapse.

This is represented in a morbid and extreme way by the cover by Maestro Paolo Girardi. The choice of oil on canvas follows the same logic of the analogue mix: to make the whole as natural, as real as possible, and to pay homage to the influences that inspired Ferum, by reinterpreting them.

Avantgarde Music / Unorthodox Emanations will release "Asunder / Erode" on LP, CD, and digital platforms on August 29th. Find digital preorders at Bandcamp HERE.
