Lorna Shore '…And I Return to Nothingness'
For Lorna Shore, the three songs at the core of '…And I Return to Nothingness' are both an exorcism and a descent into something darker. From the orchestral opening of the title track to the bombastic blackened intensity that follows, these New Jersey extremists rise from the ashes like a phoenix—reborn and sworn to the dark, delivering a fire even their most devoted fans will be stunned by.
As the world locked down in 2020, Lorna Shore delved deeper into the creative instincts that made them a force in extreme metal. Building on albums like 'Psalms' (2015) and 'Flesh Coffin' (2017), they refined their blend of symphonic black metal, death metal’s brutal complexity, and hardcore’s raw intensity. Embellished with artwork by Mariusz Lewandowski (Bell Witch, Fuming Mouth), '…And I Return to Nothingness' showcases their sharpened vision. With tracks like “To the Hellfire” and “Of the Abyss,” Lorna Shore doesn’t just continue their legacy—they set it ablaze.
