GRIM RAVINE
Cited as one of the finest purveyors of extreme blackened doom to emerge from the UK and having firmly left their mark with 2015's self-titled and 2017's The Light is from Below, south coast quintet Grim Ravine, proudly reveal their latest opus 'It's A Long Way Down, To Where You Are'. The four track album spans a multitude of soundscapes from doom to black metal, melodic to discord, it's ethereal and haunting. It's A Long Way Down, To Where You Are is an album that could be summarised as one of positive misery, a celebration of hopelessness and the futility of our joyous descent into oblivion.
The album is out 27th March 2020 via Hostile Media and will be available on CD and vinyl formats as well as on all major streaming and digital platforms. Pre-Order here: www.hostilemedia.net/shop
