VOYAGER Signs With CREATOR-DESTRUCTOR RECORDS
August 30, 2010Creator-Destructor Records has announced the signing of Massachussetts' ambient-doom masters VOYAGER. The band plans to enter Planet Z studios in Hadley, Massachusetts with producer Chris "Zeuss" Harris (SHADOWS FALL, THE ACACIA STRAIN, ARSIS) to begin recording its new album for an early 2011 release on vinyl, CD and digital formats.
Drawing influenece from the drone and gloom of bands such as NEUROSIS, MARE, CULT OF LUNA and ISIS, the Northeastern five-piece takes those elements and adds its experimental, space-oriented flair to a genre that prides itself on aesthetically crushing tones and sonic passages.
Having spent the last few years supporting its critically acclaimed self-titled EP in the Northeastern region of the United States, VOYAGER has certainly made waves in the underground doom and metal communities. In early 2010, the band released a split 12-inch with the almighty MONOLITH, an effort that showcases the group's more experimental tendencies within its 10-minute epically crushing track "Backbraker". According to the band, their newest material will reflect similarities to their usual doom-based style, but with slightly more emphasis on melody and cohesion within the album as a whole.
