Vinyl Records London are on cloud nine, we are now spinning in a brand new copy in Double Vinyl from Urne There are times in life when it feels like darkness will consume the light. Suffering. Loss. Thenbspemptiness that follows. At a distance, we can steel ourselves against the grim inevitabilities ofnbspdisease, dementia and deterioration innbsp old age, but when more intimately faced with their impact,nbspit becomes easy to imagine some hidden demon gorging on the misery wrought. From such painnbspwas birthed Urnersquos savage second album lsquoA Feast On Sorrowrsquo.nbspldquoTherenbsp were a lot of dark times,rdquo sighs frontman Joe Nally. ldquoLosing people is a horrible thing whennbspthe reality hits, it shocks. I was full of pentup emotion ndash anger, confusion ndash and I could only seem tonbsprelease that through aggression. This is much darker. There were quite a few lsquofunrsquo elements to ournbspfirst LP Serpent amp Spirit. There arenrsquot many of those here.rdquoAlongside mercurial guitarist Angus Neyra and newly recruited master drummer JamesnbspCook, the mission was to create something definitive. Unexpectedly, theyrsquod be assisted in that bynbspGojira frontman Joe Duplantier ndash already anbsp vocal fan of the band ndash who invited the Londoners tonbsprecord at his Silver Cord studio in Brooklyn, New York and came onboard to produce. Fromnbspblistering opener lsquoThe Flood Came Rushing Inrsquo and the brutalist introspection of lsquoTo Dienbsp twicersquonbspto epic 11minute pillars lsquoA Stumble Of Wordsrsquo and lsquoThe Longer GoodbyeWhere Do The MemoriesnbspGorsquo, the blend of wreckage and release is utterly breathtaking.01 The Flood Came Rushing In02 To Die Twice03 A Stumble Of Words04 The Burden05 Becoming The Ocean06 A Feast On Sorrow07 Peace08 The Long GoodbyeWhere Do The Memories Go
