Tómarúm announce debut album ‘Ash In Realms Of Stone Icons’

TÓMARÚM have announced their debut album!

Titled Ash In Realms Of Stone Icons, the upcoming album from the Atlanta, Georgia-based progressive black metal duo is their debut full-length album and is scheduled to be released in May this year, marking their label debut at new home Prosthetic Records.

Speaking about signing with Prosthetic, TÓMARÚM says, “we are incredibly thrilled to announce our signing to Prosthetic Records. Being a part of a roster that has housed legends like GOJIRA and LAMB OF GOD, as well as currently housing incredible modern acts like PSYCROPTIC, DAWN RAY’D and SCHMMASCH, is humbling to say the least. Our debut full-length, Ash In Realms Of Stone Icons, is finally ready after lineup changes, countless delays, and almost five years of obsessive work, and to have it released by a label who truly understands our vision and believes in the potential of the band is an incredible feeling. The team has been so great to work with, and we cannot wait to see where this partnership takes us in the years to come!”

The seven tracks on Ash In Realms Of Stone Icons feature session bass from Arran McSporran of VIRVUM, session drums from Spencer Moore of INFERI, and a beautiful cover painted by Mariusz Lewandowski. Alongside the announcement of the debut album, the band have released the first song from the upcoming album; In This Empty Space. The new song was first premiered via Invisible Oranges.

Speaking about the new song, vocalist/guitarist/programmer Kyle Walburn says, In This Empty Space was the second song written for the band, and it’s one of our favorites on the album. It is one of the more straightforward, intense tracks on the album and we picked it as the first single because it gives a good idea of what to expect from the record without giving away too much of what’s in store. The song was written during one of my lowest points mentally and bringing it to life has been greatly cathartic. We hope those who choose to listen experience a similar feeling.”
