MOTHER OF GRAVES: The Periapt Of Absence Full-Length From Indianapolis Death/Doom Bringers Now Streaming!


The Periapt Of Absence, the latest full-length from Indianapolis death/doom collective, MOTHER OF GRAVES, is now streaming in its stirring entirety. The premiere comes on the eve of the record’s official release on Friday, October 18th via Profound Lore Records.



The Periapt Of Absence is MOTHER OF GRAVES’ most in depth and significant material to date. Each song provides a poignant exploration of the human experience, where moments of despair are illuminated by glimmers of hope and fleeting beauty. Through eight cathartic tales of heartache, love, and loss, MOTHER OF GRAVES beckons you to delve deep into the recesses of their dark and gloomy world.



Highlighted by Brandon Howe’s soul crushing and poetic vocals, the offering transcends boundaries, delving deeper into realms of sorrow and introspection than their previous works. The album expands upon the band’s notoriously engrossing atmospheres, crushing passages that shine light on their death metal roots, monumental hooks, and melodies that will resonate for years to come.



Decibel Magazine notes, “This slow-motion soul crusher feels vintage in the best way, which is to say, timeless,” while Distorted Sound hails, “a phenomenal collection of death-doom.” Adds Last Rites, "Plenty of today’s bands skate by, and pretty comfortably at that, acing tests that bands from 1994 gave them the answers to. These guys have managed to tinker enough within the well-worn machinery to make the old engine roar with a modern vitality.”
