tobias_rieper The preview track is funeral sludge doom with an organ and hardcore vocals. Calm. Paints a bleak picture.

about

Hailing from Gothenburg, Sweden sludge doom quintet WALK THROUGH FIRE returns with their third studio opus entitled VÅR AVGRUND (Our Abyss).

The band has broadened their sound with an organ resulting out of the Arvo Pärt live recording in 2017 adding an extra layer onto their minimalistic sludge monotony and slow burning hardcore vocalisation.
Malin Wättrings contribution of saxophone in ‘Vägar Mot Slutet’ shows the band is far beyond genre restrictions and abandons any kind of traditional song structure totally focusing on the uncompromising transportation of existential dread and misery.

With 7 tracks and a total time of 75 minutes recorded this record is meant to be listened to in one piece – dragging you deeper into the abyss. Every chord, every snare hits the spot and is as important as the space in between. 6 years after ‘Hope is Misery’ WALK THROUGH FIRE prove they have found their own unique style of writing slow and extreme music.
The album is the first with lyrics in Swedish, with themes mainly about the inevitability of tragedy and suffering in life – both as individuals, and as a collective. And these themes are perfectly visualized by long-time friend of the band, Göran Nilsson (Hydra Illustration).

VÅR AVGRUND will be released on March 27, 2020 via Wolves & Vibrancy Records and Bloated Veins in a limited edition of 500 copies (400 black / 100 white marbled) double 12” heavyweight vinyl packed in a heavy gatefold sleeve.

Track Name: Den Utan Botten
Sten för sten
Blev det sakta
Ett berg
Av sorg
Hat
Och förtvivlan.
En orubblig smärta.
Steg för steg
Utan riktning
Genom korridorer
Utan slut.
Svårt att andas.
Sjunker sakta
Men säkert ner
Och ner
I mitt hav av plågor.
Sjunker sakta
Men säkert ner
Igen och igen
I samma gamla avgrund.
Den utan botten.
Track Name: Vägar Mot Slutet
Lika säkert som dag ska bli natt
Ska hopp bli förtvivlan.
Lika säkert som dag ska bli natt
Ska lust bli avsky.
Det spelar ingen roll
Vilken väg vi tar.
Alla leder mot slutet.
Track Name: Till Intet Gjord
Ingen ser
Att det ruttnat
Inuti dig
För länge sen.
Du är ett skal
Av något
Du aldrig
Har varit.
Eller någonsin
Kommer att bli.
Likt havets yta
Döljer dess hotfulla botten
Döljer du ditt vidriga inre.
Likt lövet ska falla
Ifrån sitt träd
Ska du falla.
Fast utan
Någon värdighet.
Track Name: Att Leva Är Att Lida
Vi lider men varför?
Vi ler men vad mer?
Ett ögonblick av ljus
Att förgöra tusen av mörker?
En formlös massa.
Av rädslor.
Av feghet.
Av kött.
Av blod.
Av bitter jord.
Ett inre krig.
Av “inget nu”.
Av “inget sen”.
De enda ögonen jag har
Har jag i nacken.
Dessa händer utan fingrar.
Hur dom greppar efter mening.
Vi lider men varför?
Vi ler men vad mer?
Ett ögonblick av ljus
Att förgöra tusen av mörker?
En viktlös tyngd.
Att bära.
Att äga.
Av kött.
Av blod.
Av bitter jord.
Ett inre krig.
Av “inget nu”.
Av “inget sen”.
De enda ögonen jag har
Har jag i nacken.
Att leva är att lida.
Och mer ska vi lida.
Track Name: Tragedin
I all din smärta
Vägrade du ändå bitterhet?
I allt ditt mörker
Såg du ändå
Ett ljus i tunnelns slut?
Men i tunnelns slut
Lämnade ljuset dig.
