This release means NOT that the Graves will stop playing Thrash, it is a special project with some more varity in songwriting, containing some of our favorite singers.
Adorned Graves from Kaiserslautern play Old School Thrash Metal with a touch of Doom Metal. You can feel the spirit of the late 80ies metal scene in their songs but they also add their own preferences to their sound. Technical, classical, fast riffing or blastbeats and grooves combined with melancholic, melodic elements define the music of Adorned Graves.
Adorned Graves’ debut full length “Out From The Depth Of The Grave” has been released on Aug. 7th. 2017.
“Out From The Depth Of The Grave” is a concept album about water, life, death, new life and resurrection. The album is based on the story of Jona in the old testament as you can read in their lyrics too. In the video’s below you can listen to some samples of the songs.
