The debut full-length by this French band, and sadly their swansong too. Going out on the grandest of notes, Cadaveric Fumes’ first/final album keeps one foot planted in the band’s not-inconsiderable past and another in equally-dazzling new territory. Truly, “Echoing Chambers of Soul” is aptly titled, for there’s an ominously spacious murk here. But, unlike so many trendy “cavernous” bands of the past decade, Cadaveric Fumes are skilled songwriters and are equally skilled at finding that elusive nexus between “pure” and “progressive”. There’s a stomp and strut here that’s stultifying to behold -pure early 90’s Death Metal, and authentically so- but then arises from that murk godly leads and other finessed touches of texture, making “Echoing Chambers of Soul” an album that’s bound to be a modern Death Metal classic.
