Philadelphia gloom band Bruise Bath has been undergoing a lengthy and arduous metamorphosis from its initial existence as a tool of vocalist\/guitarist Zak Krone\u2019s expression, to its current state as a more collaborative creative ensemble. Drawing influence predominantly from bands like Slint, Pixies, Wind\u2019s Poem-era Mount Eerie, Pallbearer, Butthole Surfers, and the perhaps more surprising selections of Korn and The Beach Boys, Bruise Bath steadily crafts exceedingly dark, heavy rock with moaning, reverb-drenched vocals from Krone and singer Gab Landrum. Bruise Bath\u2019s new self-titled album, is the culmination of literal years of a growing passion that has spread from one person to six. Bruise Bath\u2019s second LP shows the group at their creative best. Having spent the better part of a decade developing into the sextet it is now, Bruise Bath expanded heavily upon the gloomy, atmospheric, post-metal sound spawned from the near 20 year friendship of Krone and baritone guitarist Daniel Merchant. Not through any unwillingness of Krone\u2019s did Bruise Bath spend the last ten years getting to this point, though. More often than it may seem, artists need to pass through the lasting influence of many different musicians and experiences to become what they\u2019re truly meant to be. Their second LP is 8 tracks of Bruise Bath\u2019s darkest material yet. With mastering by James Plotkin, the album is crushingly heavy, depressed to the point of lethargy, and brimming with a despondency of the collective grief of its members as they mirror back the horrors of the 21st century to a world in perpetual mourning. It is a collective mourning, and Bruise Bath celebrates that mourning as one of the few ways left to connect with each other, and with you.
