CRYPT SERMON return with their highly anticipated new album, “The Ruins of Fading Light”! A follow up to 2015's critically acclaimed debut "Out of the Garden", "The Ruins of Fading Light" is a collection of existential meditations set to the backdrop of looming, apocryphal vestiges from a lost dark age. The lyrics explore the limits of faith and family, life and loss, strength and pride. Between thundering riffs and plaintive moments of acoustics, the music explores new territories on the landscape of epic doom and heavy metal. Still, one message echos as Crypt Sermon march onward, "We're doomed."

9 / 10

The Ruins of the Fading Light just might be the best doom metal album of the year... if it's doom metal at all.
