about

CHAOS RECORDS is proud to present THE SOMBRE's striking debut album, Into the Beckoning Wilderness, on CD format.

THE SOMBRE is the work of Maurice de Jong, insanely prolific mainman of Gnaw Their Tongues, De Magia Veterum, Cloak of Altering, Hagetisse, Golden Ashes, and countless others. With THE SOMBRE, however, de Jong returns to his roots. Having spent his formative musical years in doom and doom -death metal bands (1989-1996: Atrocious, Cauteror, and Soulwound), de Jong now reimagines the sound of his youth: doom-death metal inspired by the "Peaceville Three" and other early '90s doom/death pioneers.

THE SOMBRE's debut album, Into the Beckoning Wilderness, was released in June 2019 in a strictly limited edition of 50 CD-Rs, which sold out immediately, of course. Fans of both his work in THE SOMBRE and elsewhere, CHAOS RECORDS now will release a worldwide CD edition of Into the Beckoning Wilderness, and its megaton-heavy sadness is a perfect fit for the label. Indeed authentically evincing the sound and style of classic early '90s doom-death, as with any of de Jong's countless projects, it's his deft attention to dynamics and spaciousness - or, more accurately, the sense of space created among and within instruments - that elevates THE SOMBRE beyond a mere subgenre exercise. Likewise, while his subterranean roar is never in question, on Into the Beckoning Wilderness does the man pull at the listener's heartstrings with an anguished clean tenor, tastefully parceled out across the album's immersive 46-minute runtime.

Whether one chooses to drown in their sorrows or be emboldened by them with a suiting soundtrack is up to each individual. THE SOMBRE will take you there either way as you head Into the Beckoning Wilderness...

An outstanding Extreme doom death album, in the best tradition. The funerary atmosphere reminds of Evoken ('Centuries of ooze" bears striking similarities, for my delight). It is overall sharp, dark, hypnotic and unrelenting. One of those rare convincing new bands that hold proud the legacy of the biggest names. Bertrand Marchal

The Death of Gaia
by OFFICIUM TRISTE

An absolutely amazing album that reaches you to the bottom of the abyss. Gaia takes you by the hand, tells you that you're not alone in this, the pain is over, the misunderstanding of your pain is over and accompanied by keyboards, violins, acoustic guitars, cello and amazing vocals, she pulls you out of the disgusting mire of your mind and together you embark on a journey of melancholy, despondency, hope, pessimism and the seasons. tenebriscaedes

A Greek Obituary. Never thought I'd hear those Tampa boys' sound mimicked in a such a way, particularly the vocals. But Abyssus are not simply clones. They bring much more to the table. They're powerful death-thrash all around. George
