CHAOS RECORDS is proud to present TIDELESS' highly anticipated second album, Eye of Water, on CD/DIGITAL/TS and LP late this year].
The Cenote, hidden underground pathways of water which lead to the underworld, or what some believe is the shared afterlife…
An anguished echo from beneath the surface, one that has bled in departure, but never forgotten in heart…
...amidst this, TIDELESS return, having completed their second full-length, Eye of Water. Featuring concurrent members of Xantam and Seraphic Disgust, what once was simply death-doom influenced by The Chasm and Disembowelment started to drift more into an experimental field come the release of TIDELESS' debut album, 2021's Adrift in Grief, which CHAOS RECORDS eventually reissued. Heavily influenced by shoegaze (Alison’s Halo, Starflyer 59, Slowdive) and old prog (King Crimson and Magma), the band progressed into what they refer to as Shoegazing Death Metal.
Now, with Eye of Water, TIDELESS advance their sound more than ever with tranquil darkness and healing hallucinations. The album started production in 2021 at Toadhouse Recording Studios in Portland, Oregon and continued in Ramona Recording Studios in Ramona, California. Returning this time to produce, record, and engineer the album was Charlie Koryn (Morbid Angel, Incantation, Ascended Dead). Additional solos were laid down by Garrett Johnson (Wandering Mind) of VoidCeremony. But, more than these credits can convey, Eye of Water lays forth a rippling, incandescent landscape of majestic, triumphant shoegazing grief of death. More daring, more expansive, more shoegazing and yet also more deathly, TIDELESS' second album is an hour-long journey that indeed underlines that Adrift in Grief was no one-trick pony - that this band of sonic alchemists are operating in a field truly their own, daunting in breadth and depth but infinitely rewarding in such boundless creativity. Open your heart and let the sun hit.

The best material yet by both bands! Dream Unending take their craft to the next level, presenting some of the most captivating guitar work of 2023, a tall order in a stacked year. Meanwhile Worm deliver on every bit of the promise of their Bluenothing EP and I can't get enough of it. Metal without equal! Rayne
super duper good follow up to their first record, which is a modern death doom classic, here they went in a bit of a different and more ambitious direction joshuassites
Heaviest thing I’ve heard all year along with Altarage. Okay I’ve been listening to this record for the past two weeks and it just gets better and better. Dissonant grooves galore Jacob Ballance
On Sannhet’s latest album, produced by Peter Katis (Interpol, The National), their heaving instrumentals have new depth and breadth. Bandcamp New & Notable Jun 19, 2017
26 tracks (for whatever price you like!) showcase the breadth of the always reliable, forever rockin', Relapse Records. Bandcamp New & Notable Oct 12, 2013
An outstanding Extreme doom death album, in the best tradition. The funerary atmosphere reminds of Evoken ('Centuries of ooze" bears striking similarities, for my delight). It is overall sharp, dark, hypnotic and unrelenting. One of those rare convincing new bands that hold proud the legacy of the biggest names. Bertrand Marchal
