Somewhere to lose yourself for a while. An accurate depiction of cinematic production, carefully blended with the heavy embrace of distorted metal – something creatively ethereal and intense all at once.
WAZZARA capture a sound that’s both beautiful and unsettling, somehow both fierce and deeply calming, with the evocative depth and darkness of their new album ARBOR.
9 Confines is stunning as an introduction to this new album. WAZZARA present as black metal and ambience combined, with soulful vocal passion and instrumental waves all gifted subtle then striking moments to shine, and the whole thing is beautifully smooth – a kind of fluidity rarely found in metal or hard rock; something that echoes through the realm like a tribal call from the past and future intertwined.
People are responding to this music, and there’s a clear reason. ARBOR is stunning, deeply moving, unignorable – the kind of audio escapism that completely frees you from the weight of the outside world, creating a blanket of otherness that’s cathartic when listened to at volume.
You need to hear it to feel it, and you should. A stunning new project, from a Zurich-based act who are far from strangers to the scene.
