Sentient Ruin is proud to present the imminent first ever physical release of Tokyo-based Japanese death-doom destroyers MORTAL INCARNATION‘s debut EP “Lunar Radiant Dawn”, a two-track, sixteen-minute dirge of colossal and otherworldly atmospheric death metal that towers over this year’s death-doom output as one of the most imposing and spellbinding manifestations the genre has seen all year.

On the mesmerizing EP the Japanese four piece have masterfully harnessed the majesty and alien experimentalism first conceptualized by legendary death-doom progenitors DISEMBOWELMENT, and fused it with the merciless darkness of bands like Morbid Angel, Immolation and Incantation, to sublimate into an imposing sonic entity of unseen majesty and enormity. Unyieldingly heavy and dark, yet profoundly mystical and contemplative, through the sapient interviewing of baneful and crepuscular 90s death metal and massive architectures of lysergic psychedelic virtuosity borrowed directly from the likes of Pink Floyd and King Crimson, Mortal Incarnation have assembled one of the most modern and visionary pure death-doom releases in years, in which the intimacy and meditative powers of the golden era of 70’s psych/progressive rock and the primordial darkness and ferocity of the most suffocating death metal coexist in a marvel of superb aesthetic dominance and of crushing evocative force.

“Lunar Radiant Dawn” cassettes are scheduled to ship on January 10th 2020 and are now pre-ordeable on our Bandcamp or website. A 10” vinyl version is in the works and its release is TBA.
