DESTRUCTION OF ORION to Reissue “States Of Horror” as Digibook CD Edition on September 30th

Following the release of “Decreasing Brightness” in 2024 – an album that should be heralded as one of the genre’s most inspiring underground debuts in recent times – DESTRUCTION OF ORION continued steadfast, with their immutable sophomore album arriving just a year later.

That follow-up album, “States Of Horror”, an immersion into the despair of funeral doom, witnessed the development of the unique DESTRUCTION OF ORION sound whilst continuing an affinity with the tenets of the genre. Originally released in 2025, the album will now be reissued by Aesthetic Death on September 30th, 2026 as a digibook CD edition.

Watch the lyric video of “Melancholy”:

One of the album’s strengths lies in its understanding of the integral elements of funeral doom, something which helps the album flow as a continuous piece and adds to its overall depth and harrowing melancholy. It is an album that feels introspective and contemplative, yet simultaneously crushes with a continual weight of intensity, viewed through a prism of internal despair.

“States Of Horror” explores disturbing themes of mental disorder. A tormented vision, a portrayal of self-hatred, misery, mental anguish and fragmented thoughts.

There are few artists capable of projecting such visceral emotions through music. Each note feels like an outpouring of grief and a catharsis born from suffering. This authenticity is harrowing and stands as the epitome of funeral doom.

Let these tracks take you through a journey of despondency. Where there is no hope. Where the answer is only darkness.

“States Of Horror” can be regarded by fans of the genre as one of the finest funeral doom albums of recent years – a soundtrack for those wishing to explore their own grief and decline.

The album sees multi-instrumentalist Tehina Spasova continue to develop the sound of DESTRUCTION OF ORION, while also hinting at what may be expected from the upcoming third album, “Dimensions Of Chaos”.

“States Of Horror” will be reissued by Aesthetic Death on September 30th, 2026 in digibook CD format.
