Haunted Shores, the duo of Periphery’s Mark Holcomb and Misha Mansoor, have released a preview of their forthcoming album, Void, out March 11 via 3DOT Recordings. The song, “OnlyFangs”, is available for streaming here, and below.
“’OnlyFangs’ was one of the earlier ideas I demo’d during the writing process for Void,” explains Holcomb. “It was pretty different in its initial stage as a full-on, blast beat riff-fest, front to back - just non-stop. But when I brought the song ot Misha he really steered it into this area where it actually breathed - it had dynamics and it took you on more of a journey, namely that big middle section that anchors the song, and that down-tuned grimy mess of an ending, haha. That kind of synergy between Misha and I actually highlights why it’s so much fun for us to write together in Haunted Shores and Periphery over the years.”
Mansoor and Holcomb previously released two songs from the upcoming release: the Opeth-inspired “Nocturnal Hours”, and “Hellfire”.
Haunted Shores have also released playthroughs for each of the previous singles.
Void pre-orders/pre-saves are available now via the 3DOT webstore here. Void was co-produced by Holcomb and Mansoor, with Mansoor also tackling mixing duties. The album cover features a Paoli Girardi painting.
