{"product_id":"cwfen-sorrows","title":"Cwfen - Sorrows","description":"\u003cp\u003eSorrows' is a record that doesn't just crush – it haunts long after the final note. The allure of Cwfen’s sound lies in contrasts: the glacial ferocity of Amenra, with the velvet-and-razor vocals of King Woman, and the rotting grandeur of Type O Negative. It’s as hypnotic as it is harrowing, but somehow even better than the sum of those parts. Since emerging from Glasgow's underground, Cwfen's reputation is growing, selling out shows and pulling growing audiences into their doom-laden fever dream. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eTheir sound devours and delights in equal measure. \"Cwfen have emerged from the darkest depths of the Caledonian underground with a beguiling blend of doom metal and gothic post-punk for those who like to live deliciously.\" Kerrang! 'Sorrows' lives in the space around doom where the weight of the riffs is matched by the weight in your chest, where the lyrics and the songwriting are as important as the music itself. Loud and crushing, yet sharp enough to stick in your head for days. It builds, burns, collapses, resurrects. Big on riffs, bigger on feeling. The kind of songs you carry with you. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eSinger and rhythm guitarist, Agnes Alder, bears her claws one minute, then whispers the next, as the band follows like a storm front, rising, breaking, drowning you in the weight of it. From the guttural 'Penance' to the lush 'Whispers', to the feral 'Wolfsbane' and the insurrectionist 'Rite'. It includes a long reworking of 'Embers' and 'Bodies', the two self-recorded demos that launched them into the scene with a bang and their growing legion of fans already adore. Intricate vocal arrangements, heavy and harsh guitars, a mix of atmosphere and heft, it undoubtedly punches above its weight for a debut. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAs Agnes says: “When we stopped trying to fit into any one space, what came out was this beautiful mix of dark and light. Something visceral and cathartic.” This is a band that sits right in the boundaries between the heavy genres, pulling in everyone from the young goths and to the die-hard metalheads alike and 'Sorrows' truly does deliver in spades.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e FFO: Chelsea Wolfe, Zetra, King Woman, Type O Negative, Alcest, Faetooth, Liturgy\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"NEW HEAVY SOUNDS","offers":[{"title":"Very Limited Clear Red LP In Gatefold Sleeve + Download (500 Only)","offer_id":56287299567880,"sku":"REL-01130","price":20.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1027\/6723\/1240\/files\/0512e54a90f31f9da38267dc4bc682f2.jpg?v=1775626814","url":"https:\/\/www.relevantrecordcafe.co.uk\/products\/cwfen-sorrows","provider":"Relevant Records","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
