Jade=Sanctarium Split – The Sempiternal Wound
Prepare yourself for a descent into the macabre with The Sempiternal Wound, the latest split release from two masters of death and doom metal, Jade and Sanctarium. Set for release on September 13th, 2024, through Pulverised Records, this split EP offers a harrowing exploration of life’s inevitable cycle of decay, with each band bringing their unique sound to the table.
Kicking off the split, Jade delivers a grandiose and unsettling atmosphere with tracks like “Third Creation” and “Cascade,” blending pummeling sections with slow, crawling passages that evoke the inescapable pull of mortality. Their side was recorded and mixed by Javi Félez at Moontower Studios, adding to the cinematic depth of their sound.
Sanctarium takes over with a rotten, mid-paced deathbeat on “Recomposition Of Carbonized Corpses” and the gruesomely titled “Malodorous Osteophagy In Acrimony,” pushing the listener deeper into nihilistic dread. Marc “Necrohelm,” who handles all instruments for SANCTUARIUM, recorded and mixed their side at Necrohelm Studios, with overall mastering done at Moontower Studios.
With a total runtime of 37:30 minutes, The Sempiternal Wound is a metaphorical journey through the eternal cycle of decay that defines human existence, a concept beautifully captured in the cover artwork by Mors Ultima Ratio Art. This release is a must-listen for fans of Autopsy, Paradise Lost, and Bölzer, among others.
Both bands are based in the outskirts of Barcelona and share a history of collaboration, with Marc “Necrohelm” even recording drums for JADE’s debut album. This release solidifies their unique bond and shared vision of death and doom metal.
