Some gems and jewels are simply to good to be hidden! They are but marinating and aging under the surface to be revealed in their splendor exactly when they mean to. This is the case for The Weakening and their Masterpiece “Chains of Plato”! Created in 2012, to be released in late 2018 this album is pure quality of Swedish death metal, low-tuned, agressive, groovy and brutal. The five-piece gathered from bands like Divinefire, Crimson Moonlight, Exhale, Solution 45, Miseration and Renascent have really made something extraordinary. By joining forces they have created a mighty album that pierces into the depths of your soul. Let the percussional rythm, the fat stringssounds and the guttural growls shake your foundations, and let “Chains of Plato” loose!
The packaging on this release is a real beauty! CD comes in a digipak cover with a 8-page booklet containing lyrics and band photos. The album will be released on Dec. 1st. via Nordic Mission.
The Weakening states: “We would consider ourselves a band that plays groovy low-tuned metal with extreme intensity and aggression.”
