SUFFERING HOUR 'The Cyclic Reckoning'

At 45 minutes in length spanning 5 songs, the new album from Minnesota-based blackened death metal trio SUFFERING HOUR 'The Cyclic Reckoning' showcases the band firing on all cylinders. The music on this album is more representative of SUFFERING HOUR as a whole than it ever was on past material, with every member making their presence more known than ever. This record also features the band sacrificing some of their technicality and chaos in favour of more atmospheric passages, as the band envisioned this record to be an unhindered display of negative emotion, seething or sombre. Based around themes of awakening, obsessions, and mental anguish, this is a natural continuation of everything that encompasses the band's ideas on life, death and beyond. This is SUFFERING HOUR at their most honest and fierce. SUFFERING HOUR are a blackened death metal band from Forest Lake, Minnesota. Their unique sound garnered high acclaim with their 2017 debut record 'In Passing Ascension', a guitar-driven slab of nihilistic savagery. This sound was then further explored on their 2019 EP 'Dwell', a single 18-minute track proving their unrelenting songwriting prowess. The band has since played numerous shows and fests across the globe, most notably: Maryland Deathfest, Covenant Montreal/Vancouver and Killtown Deathfest, plus a European tour with Malthusian and a U.S. run with Sinmara.
