It’s out on Monday – you can hear it now
With the final descent of Pathway, the latest studio offering from Oakland’s favorite atmospheric doom alchemists SECRETS OF THE SKY, now days away, today the sound sergeants at Invisible Oranges deliver the awe-inspiring production in its lingering entirety.
Engineered, mixed, mastered and co-produced by Juan Urteaga (Machine Head, Testament, Sadus etc.) of Trident Studios with SECRETS OF THE SKY, Pathway is the gargantuan, thirteen-track follow-up to 2013’s lauded To Sail Black Waters full-length. Shadowy, fluid, dark and dreamlike,Pathway is a true sonic expedition that yields varying moods and textures with each passing listen.
In celebration of its release, today Invisible Oranges is pleased to offer up Pathway, likening it to, “the doom equivalent of Alcest’s Écailles_de_Lune or Solstafir on last year’s Ótta, records with beauty, staying power and just enough grit to carry the day.”
Get lost in the overcoming sounds of Pathway at THIS LOCATION.
And sample the stark and gorgeous Andrew Nethery (Melvins, Kyuss Lives, Dead Meadow)-directed visual accompaniment to fourth track “Angel In Vines” at metalblade.com/secretsofthesky where you can also sample second movement, “Three Swords.”
