As bassist of prog legends OPETH, Martin Mendez has gained world-wide popularity and now he returns with another virtuous death metal crusher that captures the fear, loss of control and despair of lockdown in eight new tracks. For ‘Dancing Into Oblivion’, his project WHITE STONES goes further down the path of progressive extreme metal with haunting growls, jazz induced intermezzi and an incredible level of technical perfection.
Today, WHITE STONES reveal their second single including a lyric video clip for the song ‘New Age Of Dark’. Dominated by a threatening atmosphere of fear and isolation, ‘New Age Of Dark’ was written during lockdown and captures all the despair and feeling of suffocation that we all know way too well since Covid started.
