Psychedelic Doom Collides: Cruzeiro and Stryx Unleash Mesmerizing Split 7
In a world where the boundaries of genre are constantly being pushed, two female-fronted psychedelic doom bands have come together to create a mesmerizing collaboration that will leave you spellbound. Cruzeiro and Stryx, hailing from different corners of the globe, have joined forces to release a split 7″ vinyl that is sure to captivate fans of heavy, atmospheric music.
Cruzeiro, originating from the mystical landscapes of Galicia, Spain, takes listeners on a haunting journey with their track “Naufraxio.” This ethereal composition encapsulates the essence of a shipwreck, with its mesmerizing riffs and haunting melodies. The band even incorporates fragments from a poem by Aleixandre Lago Barcala, adding an extra layer of depth to their music. Drawing inspiration from the likes of Windhand, Om, Sleep, Electric Wizard, and Black Sabbath, Cruzeiro’s sound is a cosmic exploration of Galician folklore and Stoner Doom.
On the other side of this vinyl gem, we have Stryx, a band with roots in Italy and Germany. Their track “Seta Nera” is a composition wrapped in black silk, characterized by sinister riffs and unsettling vocals. Stryx fearlessly challenges the hypocrisy of the Catholic Church, infusing their music with a sense of rebellion and a desire to counter-exorcise the horrors of organized religion. Drawing inspiration from the likes of Paul Chain, Antonius Rex, and early Death SS, Stryx’s retro occult-tinted sound is a captivating blend of psychedelic litanies, fatalism, and nihility.
Both Cruzeiro and Stryx bring their unique perspectives and influences to this split 7″ vinyl, creating a sonic experience that is both haunting and mesmerizing. This collaboration is a testament to the power of music to transcend boundaries and create something truly extraordinary.
So, if you’re a fan of heavy, atmospheric music that pushes the boundaries of genre, make sure to get your hands on this split 7″ vinyl from Cruzeiro and Stryx. It’s a journey into the depths of darkness and a celebration of the power of collaboration. Don’t miss out on this mesmerizing release from Romantic Songs Recordings, La Rubia Producciones, Interstellar Smoke Records, and Vertebrae.
