Australian melodic death outfit Immorium have laid the groundwork and put in the hard yards since forming in 2011.
The very fact they are from one of this country's most isolated music playgrounds almost puts them behind the eightball from the start, but as the saying goes, build it and they will come.
And come they have.
Over two previous albums and one EP, Immorium have established themselves as one of the leading lights of progressive and melodic death metal this country has to offer. Not afraid to wear their hearts on their sleeves, the band emanates an emotional rawness via skyscraper harmonies and enormous musical roller coasters that are further encapsulated in their lyrics.
But now, with album number three, shit gets real and Immorium have stepped up to the plate with Rose Water Black, which wil be unleashed on July 21. Cited as the band's 'most adventurous and intimate release to date', Rose Water Black promises to finally break the shackles and cast Immorium further into the great unknown.
HEAVY sat down with vocalist Dave Smith to find out more.
Dave discussed the upcoming release of Rose Water Black, expressing both excitement and nervousness about its reception. He delved into the personal and emotional inspirations behind each song on the album, revealing that the tracks are deeply rooted in his own experiences, including his battle with a lung disease during COVID and the loss of his brother.
The discussion also touched on the band's musical evolution, highlighting influences from other bands and the fusion of progressive and melodic death metal in their music. Additionally, Dave spoke about Immorium's upcoming Australian tour, where he shared details about the tour dates and locations and promised a mix of new and old songs in their live performances.
