shedfromthebody - A Dead and Aimless Hum (2020) EN

Shedfromthebody is a "spooky baby" from Finland and it seems that those origins are well audible in her music. The artist released recently her debut album and, damn, is A Dead and Aimless Hum good.

On one hand shoegazing vocals and atmosphere, on the other clear doom vibes, this is the music served by the Finn. And then there are inspiration drawn from dark folk, blackgaze, etc. Interesting combo, in practice, it sounds like a darker, slower version of shoegaze created with delicately guitar-based but atmosphere-filled music. I was slightly afraid that the doom influences would sound kitschy but it quickly came to me that it's completely opposite - the Scandinavian, metal spirit makes the album more complex and it's no wonder that it was recommended by Violet Cold himself.

Those inspirations sometimes are better visible (as in the fueled with very metal guitar sounds Sol) but to me, the most important songs are those that could as well be featured on Chelsea Wolfe's Hiss Spun , as the great Curl and Cherubian Hand. Very, very good debut.
