Taken from "Dust From A Dark Sun", the new album from Madrid´s power trio AATHMA, out now via Ardua Music.
*CD/LP
*CD/LP/Digital
*Digital/Merch
On this new album AATHMA pursues a more straightforward approach, with heavier shorter songs that still show the band's peculiar blend of sludge, different styles of doom and atmospheric metal, with massive wall breaking riffs, mesmerizing ambient passages and frontman and guitarist Juan Viguera's unique and emotive voice.
The record’s lyrical concept revolves around the idea of becoming one with the cosmos after respecting Mother Nature’s creation, when we become dust from that dark star after trying to live a right and respectful life towards all other sentient beings.
'Dust From a Dark Sun' is a fresh-sounding record that avoids pigeonholed stereotypes and will resonate with listeners who yearn for a sincere and moving experience from one of Spain’s most personal heavy acts.
Would you come to the end of Aathma’s world?

LYRICS
I´ve waited for the sun, I’ve waited for the light
I’ve waited for this world to wake up and rise
I’ve waited for so long that I can´t remind
I’ve waited for my fate now before my eyes
And with my hands I´ll dig my grave
And with my pain I´ll shape my fate
before my world just fade away
And I begin to face my end
And with my hands I´ll dig my grave
