"We go through Life struggling with the things we tell ourselves are important. Only to realise when Death comes that none of that mattered."

Listen to "Battles Fought in Vain" on Spotify, Bandcamp, and Apple Music.
This highly anticipated follow-up to their critically acclaimed 2024 debut, Lightning Spawn, promises a darker and more mature sound, showcasing the band's evolving artistry and the addition of a second guitar player to their lineup.
Comprised of seasoned musicians from notable acts such as Adarrak, Killing Darlings, Embers of Oblivion, Epinikion, and Primal Charge, their unique blend of heavy, stoner, and doom metal has resonated with fans worldwide, setting the stage for Spiritual Chains to be a significant release.
Spiritual Chains was recorded across various studios in North America and Europe, a testament to Thorndale's commitment to sonic excellence. Jeff Henson (Duel) lends his talent to the album, featuring a guest solo on the track "Exiles and Masters”. The album was mixed and mastered by Rickard Bengtsson and Stafan Karlsson at Sweetspot Studios in Halmstad, Sweden (Arch Enemy, Spiritual Beggars).
