Madder Mortem

Madder Mortem sounds like ... Madder Mortem. Seven albums in, there’s no mistaking the sound, and that’s quite an achievement, considering the Madder style of music spans from soft and dreamy cloudscapes to bottomless pits of sludgy despair – and everything in between. You’ll find dissonant riffs alongside a chorus you can hum. This is music for people who listen, for people who want their music to be more than a background noise.

The marrow is what lives beneath the surface and inside the bones. It is what keeps you alive and what sets you apart. Lyrically, this album is all about holding on to yourself when the world around you tries to drag you back in line. It’s about staying alive and awake in a flood of half-hearted pleasantries and restricting mundanity.
