"White Animal" (official video)
Suicide plans in a nocturnal ski-jump tower, existential anxiety in a bleak sports bar, long walks in the shadows of the Central Park, Concrete Realms of Pain is a journey into experiences of loss and human suffering. Icicle sharp guitar leads guide the listener through sorrowful doom metal to gnarly hardcore punk parts. And of course the songs are enveloped by the band's trademark buzzing bass sound. Caskets Open have outdone themselves on Concrete Realms of Pain.
Concrete Realms of Pain was recorded and mixed at Tonehaven Recording Studio by Tom Brooke. It was mastered by James Plotkin.
BIO
Caskets Open was formed in the small and desolate town of Keuruu in 2007, but has been based in Helsinki for over 10 years. The band operates as a power trio that's stripped of everything unnecessary, yet still creates a massive sound. Throughout the years Caskets Open has warmed up the stage for bands like Church of Misery, Wolves In The Throne Room and Primitive Man, just to name a few.
