Idaho’s Blackened Doom Titans Ghorot Unleash Haunting New Video and Track from Upcoming Album WOUND
Prepare to be engulfed in darkness as Idaho’s enigmatic blackened doom band, Ghorot, return with a mesmerizing video for new track Dredge, taken from their upcoming album WOUND, set to release on October 6th via Lay Bare Recordings (Nijmegen, Netherlands), Transylvanian Recordings (Oakland, CA) and King Of The Monsters (Phoenix, AZ). The band’s latest offering delves deep into the abyss, showcasing their mastery of the genre and their commitment to pushing boundaries.
Shot on location in the untamed forests of Idaho, the visuals conjure an eerie and primal atmosphere that perfectly complements the band’s sonic assault. In the video, viewers witness the band performing the track live as well as engaging in ancient rituals that harken back to a time when humanity was more intimately connected to the natural world. The juxtaposition of their raw performance and these ritualistic scenes creates an eerie and captivating narrative that is not to be missed.
This release sets the stage for Ghorot’s upcoming album, which is sure to be a defining moment for the trio. With a reputation for pushing boundaries and defying genre norms, Ghorot promises an album that will challenge and captivate listeners in equal measure.
Pre-order WOUND on limited edition 12″ 180g vinyl. Comes in Black, Black/Gold Splatter, and Black/Gold Galaxy Varieties. Limited to 100 pressings each worldwide. Vinyl created in partnership with Lay Bare Recordings and King of the Monster Records.
The horned infant known as Ruff Majik emerged from the primordial ooze when the band moved from the historical town of Lydenburg in 2012 to the capital city of Pretoria, where they honed their craft for a few years before finally entering the studio to record for the first time. Now, with a number of EP’s and two lauded albums under their belt, not to mention a megaton of local and international touring, they return with what might be their defining work in the shape of ‘Elektrik Ram’.
