Romanian gothic/doom metallers Endless Dark announce their debut full-length entitled The Kingdoom, to be released later this year in collaboration with Loud Rage Music. Formed in March 2022 by Florin Cucerzan (guitar and vocals) and Liviu Voda (guitar), the band was later joined by Dragos Benyovszky (bass and vocals), Catalin Chereji (keyboards) and Arpi Bogar (drums) to what nowadays is a determined quintet.
Endless Dark strive to provide an atmosphere reminiscing to its name, music-wise a gothic doom metal band with death and black metal influences. The sound, the message of the lyrics, the harmonic chaos, the obscure melody, all create a cell of emotions bringing all that the name Endless Dark holds within.
Endless Dark on their debut album preaches about a metaphorical entity by his name... the "kingdoom". This "kingdoom" is rather an idea, a morbid kind of thinking into the unknown, the mythical, the mystical, the dark path of the obscure idea of what the afterlife could be, and of course... the Endless Dark. The lyrics are reminiscing of death, many songs evoking a macabre tone in their lyrics while also holding high a very tiny touch of hope... or lack of it, from the melodic, chaotic harmony of the sound.
