Forged from years of EPs, splits, and the enduring legacy of Grief, ‘When the World Dies’ marks a long-awaited and devastatingly heavy debut full-length from Come to Grief. Recorded and mixed at GodCity Studios by Kurt Ballou, the album distills everything that defines the band’s approach: oppressive riffs, agonizing tempos, and an emotional bleakness carved into every movement. Across seven tracks, the group delivers a refined but utterly merciless strain of sludge and doom—music built from psychic collapse, raw despair, and the weight of lived experience. Paolo Girardi’s striking artwork deepens the album’s atmosphere, matching its visions of ruin and corrosion with vivid, apocalyptic intensity.

‘When the World Dies’ hits with a sense of inevitability, as if each riff is dragged from the wreckage of a collapsing world. The band’s lineage is unmistakable, but this is no nostalgic retread; instead, Come to Grief sharpen their sound into something even more harrowing and immediate. Guest vocals from Jacob Bannon add another layer of abrasion, merging hardcore ferocity with the band’s signature suffocating heaviness. The result is an uncompromising document of modern sludge—a record that feels both timeless and brutally relevant, sealing Come to Grief’s place as torchbearers of the genre.
