Sporae Autem Yuggoth "The Plague Of The Aeons" CD

The CD version of the first E.P. of the Chilean doom/death band. 30' of dark & oppressive music...
Formed in 2019 in Santiago, Chile, Sporae Autem Yuggoth are a new band with an old soul. Cultists of ancient styles, Sporae Autem Yuggoth deliver unremittingly dark and unapologetically primitive death-doom spawned from the cauldron of the classics. The quintet delivered their debut recording, the four-song/30-minute The Plague of the Aeons, first digitally in early 2020 and then on limited-edition cassette format not long after. An auspicious start to say the least, The Plague of the Aeons moves at brisker pace than much death-doom, twisting and turning to tempos that range headbanging marches and deep-in-the-abyss sludge alike; the songwriting fittingly takes treacherous detours and evokes unsettling atmospheres. Similarly, while Sporae Autem Yuggoth's riffing is doubtlessly crushing, there's equally an acute sense of space being explored, the band able already to span startling extremes; one could even liken their tuning to rock 'n' roll, relatively speaking. But, death and darkness eternal rule supreme here, and The Plague of the Aeons establishes that fact with no uncertainty during its generous playing time.
Even at this early stage, Sporae Autem Yuggoth have etched out a strong sense of authenticity and identity, and hereby will Personal Records release the band's as-yet-untitled debut album later in 2021. Take the first step into their slimy crypt! 

"This is the hour when moonstruck poets know
What fungi sprout in Yuggoth.." - H.P. Lovecraft.

"In the bleakest twilight …
Lunacy consumes us in our exaltation of the Ancient Ones…

SPORAE AUTEM YUGGOTH delivers Death/Doom in the traditional old (coffin) spirit without losing its strong sense of authenticity and identity. Debut EP. 30 minutes of obscure and primitive Doom / Death Metal from Chile.

Witness the ritual to commiserate your untimely demise, you have no choice…
Hail Death, Stay Doomed…" - Necrolatry Records.

The music of this Chilean band from Santiago isn't that abstract... What you hear is nice sounding old school death/ doom that reminds me of very early PARADISE LOST (First and second albums), very early MY DYING BRIDE (The first death-metallic Eps, as well as the first four albums... Depending on the songs). I also heard a bit of the Russian band BLACK FOREST (The "Sadness" album from 1999).
Here you can find a cool gloomy atmosphere, some guitars that can be epic, monolithic or more tortuous, then some nice death growls from the re-opened coffin...
In fact some songs have a seriously death-metallic approach (A la "Lost paradise") while others are a bit more melodic and sorrowful. Sometimes the band can also be a little more "progressive" (For more worked guitar parts) or somewhat "aerial", but globally the music remains into the classical death doom approach.
This first demo tape comes with interesting moments, I enjoy the atmosphere, but it also contains less interesting parts... SPORAE AUTEM YUGGOTH clearly has doomy (And death metallic) qualities, but I'm not really thrilled to death.
Anyway, this cassette could please fans of the 90's death doom atmosphere, and especially those whose minds remain stuck on the early recordings of PARADISE LOST and MY DYING BRIDE, in a just little more underground way.
