• Varaha EP CD Edition 2nd Pressing

  Compact Disc (CD) + Digital Album

  • 
  In preparation for the upcoming LP on Prosthetic Records, Varaha announces a 2nd CD Pressing of their debut EP, available immediately and exclusively on bandcamp.
  
  The EP, initially released on 2/3/17 and sold out immediately thereafter, earned Varaha critical exaltation: The Record was featured in Angry Metal Guy's "2017 Year End List EP Edition" adding that "Between the shimmery guitar melodies, the airy atmosphere, dreamlike singing and nightmarish shrieking by guitarist Fabio Brienza, “Cubicle” and “Ghost” compose a beautiful picture of what’s in store when the band releases their debut full-length in the near future" Metal Nexus observes, “There are dark overtones to the somber sonic output presented here, with each track possessed of airy, ethereal nuances traversing their wide expanses. Epic transcendentalist vibes keep you riveted as you listen to the wide spectrum of dynamics taking place and permeating every fiber and note happening around you.“ Toilet Ov Hell calls Varaha "A group fascinated by the possibilities of mingling evocative melodies with crushing riffage." Echoing Magazine commends a, “truly amazing cast,” furthering, “Though you do get hints of those other groups at moments in the play of the saxophone and cello, these are really just accents to a core-sound that is a heavily jazz influenced; Transcendence-era Devin Townsend Project, that intersects with the sometimes ethereal — almost to the point of shoegaze — and black metal aspects of Écailles de Lune-era Alcest.” Invisible Oranges crowns the offering, “elegiac and gorgeous,” adding, “VARAHA have something new to say in the world of gothic doom.” Indy Metal Vault lauds a record that’s, “epic,” and, “flat out fucking gorgeous – particularly, the clean guitar tones that dominate.” HeavyBlogIsHeavy concurs, “VARAHA… play the sort of dark, brooding, and expressive metal that made goth so important to the evolution of doom.” Dead Rhetoric calls the EP, “a delight,” championing the band’s, “excellent, heightened atmospheric jaunts,” while No Clean Singing notes, “Though you can feel the bass and the drums in a very physical and earthy way, the music equally has an evanescent, ephemeral quality, almost like imagining the northern lights cascading overhead while your feet are firmly planted in solid ground. That contrast appears in the vocals as well, which move between soaring angelic tones and ugly, abrasive snarls and shrieks. Almost transcendentally beautiful, but heavy and haunting too.”
