The flesh-crawling creepiness of the song begins to radiate at the outset, and even when the band start booming and battering, and assaulting the senses with swarming guitars, that feeling of dreadful eeriness persists - it just sounds orders of magnitude more deranged.
BUT… before we get to that song, we want you to lend your ears to the new album’s previously released opening track “ Teshub“.Īcross their many releases Valgrind‘s veins have been transfused with the blood of old Morbid Angel, Pestilence, Death, Nocturnus, Possessed, Monstrosity, and Immolation, but there’s something else going on within “ Teshub” - something otherworldly, and freakishly adventurous - which won’t come as a big surprise to anyone who heard their last two releases. Now, the same Memento Mori is poised to release Valgrind‘s mind-blowing fifth album, Millennium of Night Bliss, on April 24th, and we’re able to share the title track with you today. The wonderful 2017 EP Seal of Phobos tided over Valgrind fans until the 2018 appearance of the next album, Blackest Horizon, via Everlasting Spew Records.Īnd then came their Condemnation album released in 2020 through the Spanish label Memento Mori, followed by their From the Viscera of Darkness EP in 2021.
Another four years passed, and then Valgrind’s second album, Speech of the Flame, was released by Lord of the Flies Records. But if you happen to be discovering them for the first time, despite how often we’ve written about them, they released four demos and an EP between 19 - and then seemed to go into hibernation until the appearance ten years later of their debut album, Morning Will Come No More. We’ve been following the music of the Italian death metal band Valgrind for many years, and for good reason.
