Darqo • DawnOfTheMeek [LP]

This second full album by noise-doom-sludge monster Darqo sizzles and swirls like musical magma straight to your ears, leaving a scorching trail behind. A healthy combination of noise, gaze and sludge. The entire process of writing and recording took no less than 4 years! Abruptly interrupted by a pandemic, they managed to turn this negative news into something beautiful.

During this musical lockdown, they released an EP 'Tannhauser Gate' in 2021. When freedom gradually came closer, the new record was slowly but steadily finished. Cisco recorded the guitars in his attic. Thomas went to Wannes in his home studio. Jelle recorded the drums with Brecht and Bjørn finished the vocals at home. All this was put together and eventually headed to Sweden at Redmount Studios to get the final stamp. The result: a low and slow, but at times melodic and dreamy album that grabs you emotionally by the throat and doesn't let go until the last note.
