Goden's second endeavor Vale of the Fallen out on 17th of May 2024 G?den is back, and on their latest album the sound is heavier than ever. Guitarist/Bassist Stephen Flam is best known for his previous work with the band Winter, whose sludgy dirge earned a cult following for years to come. G?den is the spiritual successor to Winter. One could say Celtic Frost is to Triptykon what Winter is to G?den. Their debut album, "Beyond Darkness" stood on its own in creating a distinctive world. Now, four years later, they explore new sonic territories with their second album, "Vale of the Fallen". While "Beyond Darkness" was a concept album that propelled listeners into space, whether inner or outer, "Vale of the Fallen" brings us back to twisted reality. Their more in-your-face approach should only intensify the experience-much like a walk through a post-apocalyptic landscape in the bleakest imaginable conditions. Sound-wise, Stephen Flam's heavier-than-life riffs, Vas Kallas's sardonic delivery and Tony Pinnisi's keyboards create oppressive atmospheres atop Jason Frantz's powerful drumming, while Margaret Murphy's violin weaves ghostly motifs. Like its predecessor, "Vale of the Fallen" features interludes which provide brief respites between some tracks, only to return to the crushing heaviness in yet another avalanche of sound. This might be your favorite album of 2024.
