Song Of Salvation

pinkytheent Wondrous and otherworldly and angelic, in the true nature of an angel: beautiful and dangerous and strange in equal measure. This record completely links the cosmic and the intimate in such a near-perfect way that it reminds you that the cosmic IS intimate and the intimate IS cosmic. It is both mountainous and vulnerable. The melodies are so thoughtful and winding that they keep you hanging on the next turn. The instruments all strain with feeling and each song is part of the movement. What art! Favorite track: Ecstatic Reign.

dharmalogos Atmospheric death prog? I don't know. It's pretty damn good though.

Lorenzo Emotive, sweeping death / doom filled with a dreamlike atmosphere. The guitars and vocals are frankly perfectly executed, and the slight psychedelic / gothy influences that infiltrate make them even better. Lifting a touch of death metal type heaviness in favour of more progressive sounds does not diminish the impact of the album at all.

about

The 2021 Dream Unending debut album ‘Tide Turns Eternal’ was a marked shift in musical ambition for Derrick Vella (Tomb Mold) and Justin DeTore (Innumerable Forms, Sumerlands). While structured with a foot firmly in Death / Doom, a far loftier purpose and progressivism was its hallmark, as such distancing itself from others pursuing the style. Now returning only a year later with the stunning ‘Song of Salvation’, that exploratory zeal is given substantially greater allowance to soar and shine.

The 14 minute title track opener enters like a morning sunrise over a calm sea before ramping up into ethereal heaviness like the richly textured waves of a sudden ocean storm. The songs momentum never retreats into laborious repetition, always opening new doorways, ebbing and flowing like river water from its source.

Like solitarily gazing at the downtown lights of the city at night from the window of a darkened room, ’Secret Grief’ features the guest talents of vocalist Phil Swanson and Leila Abdul-Rauf on trumpet, further widening the breadth of musical talent involved and the sweep of “Song of Salvation’s” distinctive narrative.

The tranquil interlude of ‘Murmur Of Voices’ gives way to the evocative ‘Unrequited’ that begins with a lonely solo guitar before transitioning into a drifting daze of afternoon reverie and subconscious meditation.

Finally comes the album’s epic bookend,16 minute closer ‘Ecstatic Reign’. It features perhaps the album’s heaviest straight Doom moments along with the return of ‘Tide Turns Eternal’ featured guest voices McKenna Rae and Richard Poe. Tomb Mold drummer / throat Max Klebanoff also appears for a shattering back and forth vocal tradeoff with DeTore. The album’s cinematic vision and painstaking colorful detail are fully encompassed bringing this enthralling journey to its enduring peak.

Only a year on from ‘Tide Turns Eternal’ Dream Unending’s rapid evolution on the boundless panorama of ‘Song of Salvation’ is, crucially and intrinsically, a continued departure from limiting genre norms and an adept redefining of them.
