Two through the feed this week, both in the patient-and-immersive corner of heavy music. Polish post-black metal band ZØRZA dropped a 44-minute Twilight of the Golden Star with Harakiri for the Sky and Karg guesting. Russian Circles announced their next album Nine with Empath as the first single, August release.

Three releases through the Bandcamp Following feed this week, and one of them buries the others on emotional weight. Warning are back. UK doom royalty, twenty years after Watching From a Distance, with the first single off Rituals of Shame. Plus Fires in the Distance's Circadian Promise, and Saidan finally releasing Fangdriller after the Avantgarde pre-order cycle.
