Grand Harvest - Home (Vinyl LP)

Grand Harvest blends sinister sonical landscapes with soaring and mournful melodies. Their death metal stands with one foot firmly in the grave dirt of black metal, mixing heavy riffing with melodies inspired by the great northern wilderness and strongly thematic lyrics. On this, their sophomore album, the music has developed and solidified into something even darker and more direct than on the debut album Consummatum Est.

This time the lyrics delve into the Angel of Death, Death’s holiness and the concept of Death as the final and most beautiful homestead. Perfectly arranged with the music, the lyrical content, and vocal range of singer Dr. Häll, lifts the album into a philosophical and poetic sphere.

Home is mixed and mastered by Tore Stjerna, who has given the album a dark, intense sound, very fitting for the somewhat faster tempo adopted by the band compared to their debut.
