Blood Harvest Records announces June 12th as the international release date for Tombal’s debut EP, Grave of the Damned, on CD format. Unholy Domains will be handling the cassette version.
Making their way straight out of a grave and crawling into the human-known world, Tombal see the light in late 2025. Heavily inspired by the HM-2’s fierce and sharp tones, Tombal channel the tradition of Swedish death metal, finding their identity in a violent, ferocious sound, with no compromises. The grave-risen band consists of Luigi Cara, with his annihilating guitars and growls; Massimiliano Falchi, on the butchering low-end four strings; and Luca Barone, the fresh blood behind the machine-gun-like drums.
Grave of the Damned, Tombal’s public debut, is a swift & satisfying display of classic Swedeath. In just 16 minutes, the power-trio lay waste to all in their path; from fleet-footed gallops to gutted blasting, tar-thick riffing with just a bit of evil melody, and an undeniably authentic atmosphere of the early ’90s, the EP displays the band’s full arsenal, even at this early stage. So impressed by this opening statement, Blood Harvest have signed Tombal and will be unleashing the band’s debut album, which is slated to be recorded before year’s end. The past is alive…and undead!
